Graceful logout page when session expires.

Dear SDN community,
When the session is timed out, the WD application displays a message : "
The webdynpro application has expired.Restart the application using the application or the following link...". Is there way to catch the session time out and throw a graceful logout page.
Thanks!

Hi
You can make a custom error page as suggested in this link.

Generating error page(in jsp) when session expires....

hello,
i want to generate error page(in jsp) when session get expires...
plz help me out.............

You could do it according to the line BalusC supplied in another topic:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="<%= session.getMaxInactiveInterval() %>;url=login.jsp">The only thing you gotta change, is the URL, make it:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="<%= session.getMaxInactiveInterval() %>;url=error.jsp">Create 'error.jsp' and have the message 'Session expired, sorry!' or something printed. If you want to use error.jsp for more than just the session expiration, add a parameter to it:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="<%= session.getMaxInactiveInterval() %>;url=error.jsp?error=sessionexpired"> Place the following lines in your error.jsp:
String errormessage = request.getParameter("error");
if(errormessage.equals("sessionexpired")){
out.println("Your session has expired, sorry!");
}else if(errormessage.equals("whatever")){
// To do code here.
}

Determining when session expires

I want to be able to track the amount of time that the user spends on my site. I am going to insert a record into a database when the user logs on. I also want to insert a record when the user's session expires either from timing out or closing the browser window or leaving my site. Is it possible to determine when a user's session ends, particularly when it ends via the last two ways.
Thanks!

First, you can use a javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionBindingListener object put into the session as an attribute and implement the valueUnbound() method to do the database update. This will be called when you invalidate the session (unless you remove the attribute manually first).
So the problem is when will the session be invalidated..... There are really 4 things you are looking for:
1) session times out
2) user logs out (assuming you provide a log out link that invalidates the session)
3) browser closes
4) user leaves site (I assume you mean just goes to some other site in the same browser window)
1 and 2 are okay, cuz it invalidates the session and calls the valueUnbound method of the object you create as mentioned above.
For 3 and 4, you can do this in one of 2 ways:
A) Use frames in your web pages and in the top window, you can have a Javascript call some logout page. However, I'm not convinced that this will work in all situations.
B) Have an applet in the pages that does something to keep the connection alive. This requires an applet and a JVM in the client to run it. Probably not a good thing to rely on for public sites.
So really, there is no foolproof or simple way to handle 3 and 4, except to use session timeouts and rely on that.

Question about redirecting user when session expires

I have several pages that get and post variables sent to
them. Is it possible to retain these values when the user's session
expires? I want to be able to have the user re-log into the system
and then have them redirected back to the page they were just on
and preserver the get and post variables so that the data on the
page can be rendered back to them

is there anyway to manipulate the headers and store the
information there and still have it accessible if the session were
to time out?

How to forward automatically when session expires ?

Hi Techies,
whenever session expires , I want my struts action to forward to logout page automatically.
I know we can do it by implementing sessionlistener(session destroyed method).
But how to forward using action mapping .
any solution is appreciated.
Thanks,

the other method for this is be prepared from the start
of making of the project make an action class that

When-session-expires ?

hi all,
i'm trying to find a way to catch when a session expires in oracle database but i don't know how.
can anyone give suggestions on how i can accomplish this?
thanks
allen

Not sure you can do this and guarantee it, the usual would be to check a column in v$session periodically via a scheduled job , but doesn't PMON kick in and clean it up at intervals, thus making it unsure
perhaps a logoff trigger to fire ?

Rdirect to another URL when session expires

public class sessionManager implements HttpSessionListener {
public void sessionCreated(HttpSessionEvent se) {
public void sessionDestroyed(HttpSessionEvent se) {
In this class for the sessionDestroyed() function i want to write RequestDispatcher .. so that i can redirect or forward my request to another URL so that i can delete my object that r present in ServletContext.
because for requestDispatcher i need to implement HttpServlet
which overrides service method ( doGet()/doPost()).which receives HttpServletRequest/HttpServletResponse object ...
Plz let me know if possible .... the main thing is that i want to go to that particular URL for delting my objects
any Plz let me know

And if the session expires because the user closed the browser how are you going to redirect him? You can not use the requestDispatcher in the HttpSessionListener because the session will expire because it doesn' have a request.

How to disable asking password when session expires

Hi,
When the session is timed out, I want application should automatically turned on when I click on alert/message box.
Please suggest me in what way I can do this.
Thanks in Advance!!!

Hi,
This is an expected behavior and you cannot let the user login again without entering the username/password.
One possible solution would be increasing the session timeout.

How to handle session expiration in ATG

Hi,
We have a requirement wherein we have to redirect the user to a specific jsp when his session is expired. For example if a guest user is in cart page and is idle for more than 30 min he should be redirected to session expired page. We are using Apache web server and Jboss app server. Following are the ways i tried
1. In Apache/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf, I have set ErrorDocument 409 to session expired jsp - This is failed because jsp is not a static content and only static contents will be present in webserver. If it would have been a simple html (static) then this method would have worked fine I believe.
2. In cart page I have set the sessionExpirationURL of cartformhandler to appropriate jsp, checkForValidSession to true, CheckSessionExpiration.expirationURL to same session expired jsp. I am not sure why this is not working.
Please let me know the best way to handle this situation. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Regards,
Avinash

When user clicks any link on your page after session expired then you can redirect him to login page through your formhandler if a handleX() method was invoked by the request or you can use a filter which can check for something like profile.isTransient(). You can then redirect to the login page from your filter keeping a parameter of the original url to be used as login success url so that after login you can again redirect to the page that user originally intended to see.
For detecting user idleness in browser, here is one of the possible approach using javascript by implementing a document level keyboard/mouse listener to detect user interaction in your page:
<script type="text/javascript">
    var t;
    window.onload = resetTimer;
    document.onmousemove = resetTimer;
    document.onkeypress = resetTimer;
    function handleIdleTimedOut() {
        //alert("You are now logged out.");
        window.location.href = 'logout.jsp';
    function resetTimer() {
        clearTimeout(t);
        var timeoutPeriod = 1000 * 60 * 5; //5 minutes
        t = setTimeout(handleIdleTimedOut, timeoutPeriod);
</script>Apart from this, you may also want to take a look at reverse ajax to send the timed out kind of notification to the browser with the help of a HttpSessionListener:
http://directwebremoting.org/dwr/documentation/reverse-ajax/index.html
Hope this helps.

Session expired (timeout) without ADF Security using.

Hello!
I have a problem with my application in which i use own security realization without ADF Security using. I realized custom implementation of javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionListener interface, in which i log session creation and expiration events. On WebLogic I realized customDBMS authentification class. Session timeout defined in web.xml (<session-timeout>5</session-timeout>), in weblogic.xml session timeout not define.
Problem description: when session expired (popup warning displayed before this) and press OK button in popup with session expired warning, I see what no any log about session destroying from my HttpSessionListener implementation, so I cant understand, what session expired and process this event in my servlet filter. So I stay at same page (but without data in tables, coz binding variables in VO queries is not defined). If I am not click OK in the popup and wait about minute, then appear a log message about the destroying the session from my HttpSessionListener implementation. Why is the delay between the appearance of warning session expired and the actual destroying of the session in WebLogic?
I use JDeveloper 11.1.1.6.0, application deployed in integrated WebLogic 10.3.5.0

Hi,
Why is the delay between the appearance of warning session expired and the actual destroying of the session in WebLogic?Because warning is given about 2-3 min before session expire
That is why
If I am not click OK in the popup and wait about minute, then appear a log message about the destroying the session from my HttpSessionListener implementation.

Session Expired Problem on OAS

Hi,
I often got the error message "Session Expired" displayed on my HTML page that serves Java Servlet output after some time.
I attempted to look through my Servlet source codes but it has no problem. In fact, it runs perfectly well on JavaWebServer2.0.
This seems to be a OAS problem. I'm using Oracle Application Server 4.0.8.1. I attempted changing the Servlet Cartridge's "Max session idle time" and observe the behaviour. It appears that when "Session Expired" problem happened, my servlet class never get called. OAS simply display a "Session Expired" message on the web page.
How can I avoid this? How can ask OAS to call my servlet's doGet() to create a new session when it expired?
Anyone knows how?
null

Hi,
OAS has a limitation of 300 seconds. This value cannot be changed. See the release notes.
One possible way to get around this is to use the Oracle Supplied Session class and use the time feature in that.
This a big limitation and I am not sure why Oracle designed the product this way.

Hi there Sharath,
Session timeouts controlled through the APEX Environment Settings;
Please take a look at this example from the Oracle Learning Library; it shows the settings that you'll need to check/change.

Session expired, no logout page displayed

Hi, everyone:
I have been stuck here for a long time. I try to detect session expires and display a logout page.
I tried in the servlet if session.get("username") == null) then forward to logout.jsp, it never reach that page
I also tried using javascript:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
var username = <%=session.getAttribute("username")%>
if (nickname == null)
location.href = 'logout.jsp';
if (parent.frames.length != 0) {
top.location.href = 'logout.jsp';
</SCRIPT>
I never reach the logout page, it display a login page by default. I think the session.getAttribute or value is not working because the session is already expired.
It's such a headache, does anyone has the same problem and find the solution.
I guess it may talke more code either in javascript to detect the session or in a servlet, but how to do it especially if the current pages are in a framesets.
Appreciated any code!!
ann

1)Are the managed servers part of a Cluster? If they are not part of a cluster, then the session replication will not work.
2)Deploy the application to cluster NOT to two managed servers
3)Check the cookie settings - name and domain
