ReportViewerControl Session Timeout

I am using a ReportViewer Control in an ASP.NET 2.0 web application project
on a shared web host.
It is working fine, except in the case of a session timeout.

ProcessingMode="Remote"
Passing credentials via the method found here:
http://forums.asp.net/t/986174.aspx

If the user remains on the report page and is inactive beyond the session
timeout period. The following exception occurs when they try to return.

Exception Message: ASP.NET session has expired
StackTrace: at Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportDataOperation..ctor()
at Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.HttpHandler.GetHandler()
at Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.HttpHandler.ProcessRequest(Http Context
context)
at
System.Web.HttpApplication.CallHandlerExecutionStep.System.W eb.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute()
at System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean&
completedSynchronously)
InnerException:
CurrentExecutionFilePath: /Reserved.ReportViewerWebControl.axd

I have no problem with the timeout. I would just like to return the user to
the login page (like when any other page times out), instead of generating
the exception.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

RE: ReportViewerControl Session Timeout

Hi AG,

As for the reportviewer session timeout issue, here are some of my
underrstanding:

** As long as the session timeout is expected, that way to resolve it may
be check the session validation/timeout in code and then determine whether
to render reportviewer or not

** For session timeout, it is different from FormsAuthentication's timeout
setting. Forms Authentication timeout will cause request be redirected to
login page while session timeout will not.

Therefore, I think you may consider do something as below in your
reportviewr page:

1) check a prestored session variable in session to see whether it exists,
if not, that must means session has been timeout and you'll need to refresh
the page .

2) if the session hasn't been timeout, you can continue to display the page.

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng

Re: ReportViewerControl Session Timeout

Thanks Steven,

I will try that, but it will probably be a long time before I can confirm if
it works. I was unable to duplicate the condition myself, even after leaving
the report on screen for over an hour.
