Re: Losing session values

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi Steven,

I saw your response to Adrian, and I actually have the same problem: the
session does not save state, to be more specific, it reaches session_end
after postback or after redirecting to another function.

>From my debugging, I found out that the session reaches the session_end only
in a specific scenario that I run.

I'm calling, in remoting, to a function in my server side to return a
dataset.

This function in, the server, creates a new thread to run the query on the
database and retrieve the data and than return the dataset.

Now, if I comment out, still in the server, the code that performs the new
thread and perform the actual query, and instead I return null, the
session_end does not reach and the session does not end!

Do you have any idea?
