We are attempting to automatically log users off from the Session_End event
in global.asax and set some values on session_start. It is not a critical
task, more of a housekeeping task so that we know if users have closed down
their browsers without logging off first. However, although the code seems
to run OK on our development servers (WinXP ASP.NET v. 1.1, SQL Server 2000,
IIS6), they don't seem to be firing on the live server despite sessions
working fine.

We are using ASP.NET v. 1.1 and SQL Server 2000 on a W2K3 server running IIS
6.

Here is the c# code we used:-

/// <summary>

/// We can log the user out here so that the database will
reflect the correct number

/// users logged in.

/// </summary>

/// <param name="sender"></param>

/// <param name="e"></param>

protected void Session_End(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

// If user id is not null, log them out automatically...

object oId = Session["CurrentUserId"];



try

{

if (oId != null)

{

SqlInt32 intUserId =
SqlInt32.Parse(oId.ToString());



SessionServer.LogOut(intUserId,
Session.SessionID);



LogWriter.InsertAuditTrail(TypeServer.AuditLevel.INFO,
intUserId, "Session logged out automatically.");

}

}



catch (Exception ex)
{LogWriter.InsertAuditTrail(TypeServer.AuditLevel.INFO, (null ==
oId)?SqlInt32.Null:(SqlInt32)oId, "Error logging session out
automatically.");}

}

Any ideas?
 
Hello bruno,

Session_End is not called even if browser is closed by user because HTTP
is stateless and server dont know whether you close browser.
It's is called when u call it explicit or session is expired by timeline

PS: Session_End is available onle in InProc mode

We are using InProc and we are aware of how it is supposed to function.

To clarify. It _is_ working on our development servers but _not_ on the live
server.

Session is firing on your dev server but not in production, is that right?
