Adel · 2023-11-16T00:35:11.567Z

I made a car dealer website for my dad and never had any issues, but months down the road every time he trys to add a car it won't let him cause hes not logged in website just randomly kicks him out not sure what I need to do to fix this? Thank you my cookies? In my local testing nothing happens but only when I publish it it logs me out.

When you ask a question, make sure you include as much detail as possible. Such as code, the issue you are facing, and what you expect the result to be. Upload code here https://paste.mod.gg/ (see $code for more information on how to paste your code)

Wasnt sure if it would be my program.cs or my controller

A

AdelOP•11/16/23, 12:57 AM

I log in works great but like I said its random when it logs me out but its quick wont last more then 5mins

M

Mayor McCheese•11/16/23, 1:51 AM

Maybe you need to set this?

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.aspnetcore.authentication.cookies.cookieauthenticationoptions.slidingexpiration?view=aspnetcore-7.0

M

Mayor McCheese•11/16/23, 1:52 AM

I'd expect that to be true already, but maybe not?

J

JakenVeina•11/16/23, 4:14 AM

you need to better understand what's causing you to "log out"

J

JakenVeina•11/16/23, 4:15 AM

is the cookie being wiped out by something?

J

JakenVeina•11/16/23, 4:15 AM

is your app rejecting it for some reason?

J

JakenVeina•11/16/23, 4:17 AM

if you can't replicate this behavior in Development, your best bet is to add an enable as much logging as you can, for the auth system, and examine those after-the-fact in Production

M

Mayor McCheese•11/16/23, 4:27 AM

He's literally saying log me out after 30 minutes

M

Mayor McCheese•11/16/23, 4:27 AM

since he's not extending the cookie

M

Mayor McCheese•11/16/23, 4:27 AM

options.SlidingExpiration = false; // Disable sliding expiration
options.ExpireTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(30); // Set the absolute expiration time

J

JakenVeina•11/16/23, 4:50 AM

right, be he also claims he's getting logged out after about 5 minutes

M

Mayor McCheese•11/16/23, 5:48 AM

I missed that part

A

AdelOP•11/16/23, 5:11 PM

I'm not sure what to add to catch these errors I made this website a year ago so my knowledge is very limited

A

AdelOP•11/16/23, 5:12 PM

Wasn't sure if I should catch the error in the controller or program.cs

M

Mayor McCheese•11/16/23, 6:02 PM

If you remove the false on sliding expiration, what happens?

M

Mayor McCheese•11/16/23, 6:02 PM

iirc with sliding expiration set to false, on round trip the cookie isn't extended

A

AdelOP•11/16/23, 6:18 PM

I'll test that out when I'm back home working atm

A

AdelOP•11/16/23, 6:18 PM

Thank you guys for trying to help
