Hello,
I use Form Based Authentication in my site
In my login page I have:
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(user.userName, true)
When I want to check if the user is authenticated I do:
HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated
This is working for me most of the times
The problem is that sometimes after 5 hours or something after 30 hours
The Application pool gets restarted for some reason (I’m on a shared server)
And after that the “User.Identity.IsAuthenticated” returns with false, every time until the user logs in again.
This is strange to me because I can see that the client still have the persistent authCookie so why the user is not authenticated ?
My Web.Config reference:
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms
name="AuthCookie"
loginUrl="~/mySite/ManageLogin.aspx"
timeout="5256000"/>
</authentication>
<sessionState mode="InProc" timeout="180"></sessionState>
Any help will be much appriciated
Best regards
mike
