1. idle time out option application pool
2. session time out in Web.config
3. by changing sesstion time in Global configuration of the application.

Still sometime facing issue of application timeout, this is not coming on regular basis. Is there any seession timeout setting i left? Pleasde suggest if i can handle the application session time out in a better way.

Answer 1

When we deal with huge amount of data, generally it may occur TIMEOUT problem... in those situations Take care of 3 things ( problem will be almost solved )

1. put the connection timeout property in Connection string string connstring=" Data Source=localhost;User ID=sa; pwd=secret; Initial catalog=nothwind;connect timeout=900;";

2. set the command timeout for the SqlCommand Object com.CommandTimeout=0; // this will makes Command to execute unlimited seconds

3. Now .... last but not the least... in the form unload function destroy the connection object conn.Dispose();

Something like:

<configuration>
  <system.web>
     <sessionState timeout="20"></sessionState>
  </system.web>
</configuration>

should see you right
