Session expiring

We are using Oracle 10g r2 and APEX 3.1. We have deployed an application that is having issues with sessions expiring and the user is being required to log back in. We are using the default Application Express Authentication Schemes. We have noticed the expiration occurs when we have a user open seperate browsers and log into the app in each one. There is no period of inactivity so it should not be a timeout of any sort. Anyone have any similar issues? Any ideas at all would be appreciated.
Thanks
Jon

Browser windows must run in separate OS processes in order for one's cookies not to be shared among them. There are ways to do this in IE, not sure of a way to do this in Firefox. BTW, the sessions are not expiring, the cookie value is being supplanted.

ISE 1.2 CWA with Multiple PSNs - SessionID Replication / Session Expired

Hi all.
I have a (2) Policy Services Nodes (PSNs) in an ISE 1.2 deployment running patch 1. We are using Wireless MAB and CWA on 5760 Wireless LAN Controllers running v3.3.3.
We are hitting an issue wherein a client first passes MAB and then gets redirected to a CWA custom portal. The client then receives a Session Expired message. This seems to be related to the fact that CWA is technically a 2-stage authentication (MAB by the WLC and then CWA by the client). Specifically, it seems to happen when the WLC makes its MAB RADIUS access-request to PSN-1 and then the client comes in to PSN-2 to complete the CWA. This issue does not happen when only one PSN is in use and all authentication traffic (both MAB RADIUS and CWA) is directed at a single PSN.
Clients resolve the FQDN in the redirect URL using public DNS and a public DNS zone file (call it cwa-portal.example.com). cwa-portal.example.com has two A records for the two PSN nodes. DNS is responding to queries using DNS round-robin.
I have the PSNs configured in a Node Group for session information replication between PSNs, but this doesn't seem to make a difference in behavior.
So I ask:
What is the recommended architecture for CWA when using more than one PSN? It seems that you would need to keep the two authentication flows pinned together so that they both hit the same PSN when using more than one PSN in a deployment. A load balancer balancing on the SessionID string comes to mind (both the RADIUS MAB request and the CWA URL contain this unique per-client SessionID), but that seems terribly overbuilt for a seemingly simple problem. On the other hand, it also seems like using a Node Group setup should easily be able to replicate client SessionIDs to all nodes in the deployment so that this isn't an issue. I.e., if the WLC authenticates MAB on PSN-1, then PSN-1 should tell the Node Group about it such that when the client CWA's on PSN-2, PSN-2 doesn't respond with a Session Expired message.
Is there any Cisco documentation that talks about this?

Tim,
Thanks for your reply and confirming my suspicion. Hopefully a future version of ISE will provide automated SessionID synchronization among PSNs so that front-end finagling in a multi-PSN environment won't be necessary.
For anyone else with this issue who for whatever reason can't implement a load balancer(s), I built an automated EEM applet running on a "watchdog" switch (3750 running 12.2(55)SEE9) using IPSLA tracking that senses when PSN1 is down and then
modifies an ASA to change its client-facing NAT statement for PSN1 to PSN2
modifies the primary and HA wireless LAN controllers to change its MAB RADIUS aaa server group to use PSN2
reverts the ASA and WLCs to using PSN1 when PSN1 is detected up and running again
The applet ensures the SessionID authentications stay "glued" together so that both WLCs and the client hit the same PSN for both stages of authentication. It's failover only, not a load balancing solution, but it meets our current project's need for an automated HA environment.
PM me if you want the code. I'm have a little too much going on ATM to sanitize and post it. :)

No more than 1 sessions at a time are allowed. Please wait until open sessions expire.

I have been unable to log into my Actiontec MI424WR router this week, The router returns the message "No more than 1 sessions at a time are allowed. Please wait until open sessions expire." every time I try to log in. This has been going on for days. Even pulling the power to reboot it did no change. I'm the only user in the household that would log into it, so I don't understand how this could occur. How can I get in?

I really don't want to do a hard reset as I have a handful of custon port forwarding rules that I had created. I'm not a wiz at that, so it would take me too much time to re-create! I may have no choice. Next time I can get in I will try the backup of the config file. I hope it contains the port forwarding rules.
The backup function should work fine, I have used it to save my Steam port forward rules to my hard drive, after a pin hole reset I was able to restore successfully. I did configure mine to 1 session & ALWAYS logout when I am done. I have never had any problems logging into the router. But in your case you may need more than 1 session allowed.
Are you using a native or 3rd party app to remember your router ID/password? IF you are do not do this, you are "defeating" the built in security of the router

Hi, I cant login to the facebook app on my iphone 5 ios 6.0.2. I keep getting an error message saying 'There was an error logging in using single sign on' when im asked to log in again i get a 'session expired' message. This only started happening yesterday. Anyone else having this problem? Thanks.

I am having the same problem and took the following steps to mitigate it to no avail.
1. I deleted the Facebook app on the phone and turned off Facebook in the iPhone's system-wide settings.
2. I re-enabled Facebook in the iPhone's system-wide settings and reinstalled the Facebook app and logged in again. It worked. For about an hour.
3. I completely restored the phone to a previous backup (before the problems started) and reenabled Facebook .... reinstalled the app.... and now it works intermittenly. But it hasn't worked in about 12 hours now (just tried a few minutes ago).
Please advise.

Redirect to main jsp when the session expires

Hi,
I have a jsp say mainframe.jsp in which I have two frames each having a jsp page say child1.jsp and child2.jsp.
When the session expires and I when i try do any changes in child2.jsp or child1.jsp, the page redirects to login page and when I login successfully, I am getting redirected to child2.jsp or child1.jsp respectively. But I want it to be redirected to mainframe.jsp.
Any help is greatly appriciated.
Thanks in advance.
Vinod

I think I am not clear.
When I try to login after session expiry, I am redirected to child jsp.
But what I want is that I should be redirected to mainfram.jsp page.
url in the address shows : ../mainframe.jsp?ID=******
When my seesion is expired and I try do some manipulation in child1.jsp (which is inside a frame of my mainframe.jsp). it is redirected to login page and from there to child1.jsp instead of mainframe.jsp
Now the address url shows : ../child1.jsp?ID=********* because of which I am not able to see child2.jsp along with child1.jsp
What I want : ../mainframe.jsp?ID=********
this is the code I am using !!
String destPage = request.getRequestURI();
response.sendRedirect("../redirect.jsp?dest=" + URLEncoder.encode(destPage));

Why am I getting a number of session expired terminations on my yahoo email since upgrading to 31.0?

Sometimes I'm logged into my yahoo email for just a few seconds and am getting a session expired notice. I've run Malwarebytes to look for malware, but it came up empty. Never had this problem prior to upgrading to Firefox 31.0.
I have not tried other browsers. I don't like either IE or Chrome.
Any ideas what to do?
Thanks.

Currently, your More System Details shows you start up automatically in private browsing mode (Privacy set to "Never remember history"). Is that the same as how you were using Yahoo! mail in Firefox 30?
In the past, Yahoo! sites were sensitive to connection changes. You generally could not stay logged in with one of the connection settings:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > Network mini-tab > "Settings" button
* "Auto-detect proxy settings" caused problems
* "No proxy" should work
Not sure whether that is a factor here. Is there anything else that could be causing your connection to vary, such as a private VPN or Tor?

ISE 1.2 Guest Access session expired

We have set up the ISEs to allow wired guest users to logon with CWA but every time we get
"Your session has expired. Sign on again".
We successfully get to the portal and can logon, change password, accept conditions but then we just get the session expired page.
From the switch (some data redacted fro privacy):

The ISE reports a failed login
Event
5418 Guest Authentication Failed
Failure Reason
86017
Now the reason appears to be that the guest portal being accesed is on an ISE in our DMZ but the RADIUS/MAB authentication is done by our internal ISEs (all ISEs are part of the same cluster however). This is because the NAD is a switch and its management interface is on the inside of the network while the guest VLAN is in a DMZ. If we authenticate the RADIUS and guest on the same ISE (by breaking routing/security) then the access is granted and it all works corrcetly.
We are summarising that the session ID sent by the RADIUS ISE server is not avaialble to the Guest Portal ISE server so the session ID does not exist in the session cache.
So does the guest portal ISE server have to be the same ISE server that does the RADIUS/MAB session generation? There is no obvious way to tie a FQDN (e.g. guest.ourdomain.com) to the ISE used by the NAD.
Should the session ID not be shared across all enforcement nodes?
Any other ideas or thoughts?
Chris Davis

Thanks Jan, do you know if this is by design, even across nodes in node groups? I'm guessing that Bug CSCul10677 is the same issue.
Thing is, it rather makes the CWA static IP/Hostname option redundant/useless in a resilient configuration. It also means that the NAD must use the guest network for dot1x traffic or that the guest nework must be able to route over/into the internal network neither of which appear to be ideal from a security perspective...

PROBLEM USING FILTER TO KNOW SESSION EXPIRATION

Hi, i'm using a filter to know when the session expires but it appeasr not to work, so i am a bit confuse because the filter always executes well but when the session gets the timeout and the user send a request it isnt executed, the server redirects the user to the login page.
I am not sure about it, but is it possible that the reason of why the filter is not executed, is becuase i am using the apache form-authentication????
filter's code:
public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
HttpServletRequest req;
RequestDispatcher disp;
HttpServletResponse res;
boolean userInSession;
String forward = getConfig().getInitParameter("sessionClosed");
req = (HttpServletRequest) request;
res = (HttpServletResponse) response;
System.out.println("InFilter");
userInSession = req.getUserPrincipal() != null;
if(userInSession) {
chain.doFilter(request, response);
System.out.println("Session: " + req.getSession(false).getId());
System.out.println("Session: " + req.getSession(false).getMaxInactiveInterval());
System.out.println("getSessionTime: " + req.getSession(false).getCreationTime());
} else {
disp = req.getRequestDispatcher(forward);
disp.forward(request, response);
res.sendRedirect("http://www.google.com");
System.out.println("outFilter");

I haven't used it because it is deprecated but I think it does what

In my apps, I make the FORM auth submit to my own servlet which can then

Session expired with StreamingAMFChannel

Blaze 4.0
I have a flex desktop app which has only one consumer using a streaming amfChannel. So there is no producer.
After 30 minutes my channel gets disconnected, because the httpsession on the server expired. The connection was not idle, because every second 2 messages are streamed.
I also defined a heartbeatInterval on the channelset, but still the session expires.
This is the Logging:
BlazeDS :07/02/2012 19:09:49.165 [DEBUG] [Client.MessageClient] MessageClient created with clientId '696A7855-841D-ABE3-505A-AE5699DF4B4A' for destination 'messages-feed'.

                                                   />
Why is the HTTP session expiring? Is that because only messages are pushed in the direction from server to client?

Thanks for your reply, but I already had defined <server-to-client-heartbeat-millis> on my server and the heartbeatInterval on my Client ChannelSet.
This is really annoying and I can't imagine I'm the only one seeing this behaviour. I'm just doing common things with BlazeDS.
Does anyone knows what is causing this?
Here is my channel definition:
<channel-definition id="my-streaming-amf" class="mx.messaging.channels.StreamingAMFChannel">
            <endpoint url="http://{server.name}:{server.port}/{context.root}/messagebroker/streamingamf" class="flex.messaging.endpoints.StreamingAMFEndpoint"/>
        <properties>
                 <idle-timeout-minutes>0</idle-timeout-minutes>
                 <max-streaming-clients>10</max-streaming-clients>
                <invalidate-session-on-disconnect>true</invalidate-session-on-disconnect>
                <server-to-client-heartbeat-millis>5000</server-to-client-heartbeat-millis>
          </properties>
</channel-definition>
And here is the logging again:

Checking for session expiration

We're using JSPs and Servlets in our application. Looking for a way in code to check if the session has expired. We will need to do this from a jsp as well as a servlet (sometimes a jsp is pointed to by a link and sometimes a servlet). Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks all.

I like the idea of a session verifier. We have about 25 jsps, 15 servlets, and at least 80 components (beans) in the app. How would the verifier component work? How could we intagrate it with all the other existing components? Ideally it would be integrated with minimal modifications...
Is the following what you had in mind with your suggestion to check for session data:
HttpSession session = request.getSession();
//or could this be used too: HttpSession session = pageContext.getSession();
String valid = session.getAttribute( KEY );
if ( null != valid ) {
//then the session is still active
jl
>
If the session has expired and you current have a new
session, then use the isNew() method to check the
session object. Or, you could check the session
object for the data you are looking for. If it is
missing, then the session expired and has been newly
created. You should build into your design a session
verifier so that you don't expierence NullPointers or
missing data.

Tomcat session expires after compiling servlet/ class

Hi,
Does anybody know why tomcat(4.1) session expires if you modify a serlvet or class and compile it.
After compiling I refresh the page and I get session invalidated page. And every time I compile I have to relogin.
Any ideas ? Is there a work around ?

In serverl.xml, if you have set the reloadable="true" attribute in your <Context/> tag for your web application then each time one of the servlet classes is modified, tomcat will reload the web application. Set reloadable="false" and this will stop.

<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.

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.
