Session Expires very quickly

Hi All

I m working on ASP.NET Site. The Site is hosted on DiscountAsp.net. The site was working fine for more than 3 months. I m facing a problem since one week. I am creating Session through out the site for different functions. Some time sessions remain live for more time while the other time the session expires in one minute.

I did nothing in web.config file for session.
Why this is happing. Any Help.


Thanks in Advance

 

Are you using InProc or SQL Server session for your application?

If you're using InProc to save your session, you will lose all sessions if your application pool recycles and it's usually unstable sometimes.

SQL server is a little slower, but keeps all your sessions on your database, which makes it a lot more stable.

Thanks for your reply

I m using InProc to save session. I think I m losing all sessions because of application pool recycles. what causes the application pool recycles.

Thanks

 

Have you considered using SQL session for your application?

 

The application pool will recycle if your application hangs or crashes, if the memory usage has reached gone over the 100mb limit (on IIS6), a sustained 75% CPU usage over 3.5 minutes, or the application has no activity for 20 minutes.
