session-timeout

Have been pulling out my hair trying to find out why my sessions are being terminated/killed/destroyed at 30 minutes. Well it looks like Debian based systems have a special cron running that ignores all php.ini and apache configurations and kills any idle session at 30 minutes. The cron path: /etc/cron.d/php5 Inside the cron: # /etc/cron.d/php5: crontab fragment for php5 # This purges session files older than X, where X is defined in seconds # as the largest value of session.gc_maxlifetime from all your php.ini # files, or 24 minutes if not defined. See /usr/lib/php5/maxlifetime # Look for and

Case 1: Log out : Once we log out, if one tries to access previous, it must automatically redirect to login.jsp Case 2: Session expired : If session expires when user is still logged in, it must try to automatically redirect to sessionExpired.jsp when previous page is accessed. How to differentiate ? I am currently invalidating session when logging out. On login, set a cookie with a long expiry (> 24 hours). Remove this cookie at logout time by setting the maxage to 0. You can have check for any non-logged in user (i.e. invalid session id). If the cookie does not exist, redirect him to login

I've been working on an JSF application. At one place, I've to call an action in managed bean. The action actually process hundreds of records and the session timesout before the processing is finished. Though all the records are processed successfully, the session expires and the user is sent to login page. I'd tried adding session.setMaxInactiveInterval(0); before the processing of the records with no effect. How to prevent the session time out during such process. Introduce ajaxical polls to keep the session alive as long as enduser has the page open in webbrowser. Here's a kickoff example

I have a site with a session timeout of 15 minutes. On some pages a user occasionally spends longer than 15 minutes filling in a reply. What is the best solution to keep alive the session in this case? I already use JQuery on these pages, so possibly pinging a server, but on what events? The backend is a Struts on Tomcat . Alexander Sagen Given you don't want to change the site's session timeout.. Set a timeout/interval (< 15min) event in javascript and decide what to do when the event triggers. If you want the session to be active as long as the page is open, then fine, keep pinging every <

For security reasons I set SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE to true. But, browser-length cookies (cookies that expire as soon as the user closes his or her browser) don't have a expire time, then SESSION_COOKIE_AGE has no effects (Yes, I check it). But I want to set a logout/timeout on inactivity plus to logout on browse closing. My question is, What is the best way to implement inactivity timeout/logout in browser-length cookies scenario? dani herrera As you explains, SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE and SESSION_COOKIE_AGE are not compatible. When you set an expiration date to a cookie, this

What is the default session timeout for web applications deployed on Tomcat5.5? Is it browser specific? In my web application, default timeout is mentioned neither in web.xml nor in code. Evgeniy Dorofeev Open $CATALINA_BASE/conf/web.xml and find this <!-- ==================== Default Session Configuration ================= --> <!-- You can set the default session timeout (in minutes) for all newly --> <!-- created sessions by modifying the value below. --> <session-config> <session-timeout>30</session-timeout> </session-config> all webapps implicitly inherit from this default web descriptor.

This question already has an answer here: Auto logout with Angularjs based on idle user 10 answers Is there any way to manage user session using Angularjs?, I mean:: Session timeout - when system is idle. Alerts when session is near to expire with option to resume session. Redirect (or any other action) when trying to make a request if session has expired. Could be Interceptors one good option to solve this problem? Can you provide an example? Thanks in advance. Try ng-idle . It's simple component where you can set the timeout and warning time before the timeout is reached. Then you can query

C# MVC4 project: I want to redirect to a specific page when the session expires. After some research, I added the following code to the Global.asax in my project: protected void Session_End(object sender, EventArgs e) { Response.Redirect("Home/Index"); } When the session expires, it throws an exception at the line Response.Redirect("Home/Index"); saying The response is not available in this context What's wrong here? The easiest way in MVC is that In case of Session Expire, in every action you have to check its session and if it is null then redirect to Index page. For this purpose you can

In IIS 6 (and other versions too afaik), there is a Session Timeout setting in Properties -> Home Directory Tab -> Configuration button -> Options tab. Looks like this: And in the ASP.NET web.config there is a SessionState setting, looks like this: <system.web> <sessionState timeout="120" /> <!-- etc .. --> </system.web> Are they, by any chance, related? Do they set the same thing, or different things? They are not the same. The IIS session timeout is for clasic ASP pages. The web.config one is for asp.net. The IIS setting has no effect on ASP.NET sessions as far as I'm aware - these must be
