ASP.NET 2.0 Session State

[Guest]

Can both ASP.NET 2.0 Session State and ASP.NET 1.1 co-exist in SQL Server?

Yes.

The session state should be the same, but I would not feel comfortable using
the same exact SLQ Server database for session state for both, making me
inclined to say no.

You could aim to different instances or different databases (not sure how to
do the later).

Not needed.

re:

It's easily done by using the -d parameter when you run aspnet_regsql.exe
for ASP.NET 2.0, or modify installsqlstate.sql for the 1.1 version.

You need to modify the other two install*.sql files if you change the default name for 1.1:
installpersistsqlstate.sql and installsqlstatetemplate.sql ( as opposed to changing the
database name for 2.0 )

For ASP.NET 2.0, run ''aspnet_regsql.exe -?'' for details.

You will need to change one or the other, since the default name for both is "ASPState"

The databases are quite different, and pointing each ASP.NET
version to a differently-named database will work fine.

Juan:

Thanks for the info on how to set up different versions. I figured the
session state database was incompatible, but did not want to take a chance
with the wrong info. Kudos!
