Session Expires before Timeout

[chamaratharanga]

I have set the session timeout as 120 mins in the Global.asax. However
my session expires within about 5-10 mins at different pages. I used
"InProc" as the session state mode. Any help is appreciated.

Hello,

Sorry i don't know the answer.. but can u let me know how can we set the
session timeout option in global.asax file.

The one option i knew was to set the sesstion timeout in web.config file.

Regards,

session expires

I found settings in IIS that affects session being lost if you are using In-Proc session state.

Right click on application pool -> properties

Recycling Tab -> "Recycle worker process (in minutes)" if this option is checked, make sure time set here should be the same as session timeout set in web.config

Performance Tab -> "Shutdown worker processes after being ideal for" Make sure time set here should be the same as session timeout set in web.config

Hope this resolves your issue.
