Hi there,

I am having trouble with an ASP login that uses sessions to control access
to certain pages. However the sessions are not being carried accross upon
using response.redirect.
I realise that this is the case that DNS names and IP addresses vary upon
whether it works or not, however how can i get around using sessions live on
the internet? and make them work>?

Hope you guys can help

Are you response.redirecting to a different domain? What does your redirect
look like?

If Not RecordSet.EOF Then
Dim struserLevel, strUName
struserLevel = RecordSet.Fields("UserLevel")
strUName = RecordSet.Fields("UName")
Session("UserLevel") = cint(struserLevel)
Session("UName") = strUName
Response.Redirect("admin3/admin.asp")
****

Not to a different domain at all, in a sub folder of the same website, But
the redirect works, its the session that doesnt get carries accross

If you have the directory defined as its own application in IIS, the session
info will not carry to it. That's my guess as to why session data isn't
carrying, assuming that's what's happening.

http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=2157 for other causes.

im not quite sure what you mean, the page is the application, outside the
directory, and it redirects to a page inside another directory on the same
site

Open your IIS manager on the live server.
Go to the site in question.
Right click on this "admin3" directory.
Click Properties

On the directory tab, at the bottom, is an "Application Settings" area.
There is a textbox with a label of "Application Name" to the left. To the
right of that textbox is a command button. That button will either say
Create or Remove. If it says Remove, that means that admin3 is its own
application (with its own sessions, global.asa, etc.).

Okay, we'll start over then. How do you know it doesn't work? What does
this do:

<%
If Not RecordSet.EOF Then
Dim struserLevel, strUName
struserLevel = RecordSet.Fields("UserLevel")
strUName = RecordSet.Fields("UName")
Session("UserLevel") = cint(struserLevel)

RESPONSE.WRITE STRUSERLEVEL
RESPONSE.WRITE "<BR>"
RESPONSE.WRITE Session("UserLevel")
RESPONSE.END

Session("UName") = strUName
Response.Redirect("admin3/admin.asp")
%>
