About Session or Cookies

Question

I am using Session to store Id and Other fields (such as: UserId, Phone, Email) after Login and Signup. But the session gets expired after some time. So anyway I can keep the session alive. I tried some online solutions but didn't work Also, tried Cookie, but do I need to create Cookie for every field (such as UserId, Phone, Email) and then retrieve it on all pages? I am using MVC OrmLite. Thank you in advance.

U need to use Tempdata except session for mvc application Example: public class StudentController : Controller { // 1st Request public ActionResult Index() { TempData[ "name" ] = "Usama" ; TempData[ "institute" ] = "GCUF" ; return View(); } // 2nd Request public ActionResult Details() { return View(); } }

Hi Add a new event to your global.asax.cs file called Session_Start and remove the session related stuff protected void Session_Start(Object sender, EventArgs e) { int temp = 4; HttpContext.Current.Session.Add( "Temp_Session" ,temp); } Actualy in mvc used tempdata for pass data from cointroiler to controler. Instade of this if you want to set sesssion ,then can set at session_start function of global.asax For cookies bellow is the code To get a cookie: HttpCookie cookie = HttpContext.Request.Cookies.Get( "some_cookie_name" ); To check for a cookie's existence: HttpContext.Request.Cookies[ "some_cookie_name" ] != null To save a cookie: HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie( "some_cookie_name" ); HttpContext.Response.Cookies.Remove( "some_cookie_name" ); HttpContext.Response.SetCookie(cookie );
