We can set our custom session timeout
in our applications by following Methods
1.
In Web.config file
we can set session timeout like as shown below
<configuration>
<system.web>
<sessionState mode="InProc" timeout="120">
</sessionState>
</system.web>
</configuration>
|
Note that if you are using Forms
authentication, the Forms timeout setting will log the user out after the set
timeout period so you will also have to adjust this attribute:
<authentication mode="Forms" >
<forms timeout="120">
</authentication>
|
2.
In
Global.asax file we can set session timeout in Session_Start event
like this
void Session_Start(object sender, EventArgs
e)
{
// Code that runs when a new session is started
Session.Timeout = 120;
}
|
