Application_End() and Session_End () never execute ??

[Chris]

Hi,

I entered some logging-stuff in global.asax :
namely in Application_Start(), Application_End(), Session_Start() , etc
....

When I start the ASP.NET app from within Visual Studio does it Log very
nicely
Application_Start,
Application_BeginRequest ,
Session_Start,
Application_EndRequest

Refreshing the page in the browser :

Application_BeginRequest ,
Application_EndRequest

Starting a second browser (while the first browser is still open) :
Application_BeginRequest ,
Session_Start,
Application_EndRequest
==> so NO Application_Start() --> OK

but then ... closing the first browser --> no logging at all
==> so NO Session_End ???
closing the second browser --> no logging neither
==> so NO Session_End ??? NOR Application_End() ???

how come ?

starting a browser again :
Application_BeginRequest ,
Session_Start,
Application_EndRequest

==> NO Application_Start ???

does it mean that the app is still active in the background ?

thnx

Chris

Hi Chris,

This is beacuse of the Session Time out. The browser is closed but the
session is still active till the session.Timeout is reached. (you may try
adding the "Session.Timeout = 1;" in protected void Session_Start method in
global.asax) Wait for one minute after closing the browser and after one
minute you should see the entry in the logging-stuff.

starting a browser again :
Application_BeginRequest ,
Session_Start,
Application_EndRequest

==> NO Application_Start ???

does it mean that the app is still active in the background ?

Application_Start will happen when any page is retrieved for the first time
after a webserver restart or the web.config file is changed.
