Victor,
I am using forms authentication and it seems to work fine except for the
FormsAuthentication.Signout(). I have a login page with the following code
in the Page_Load function:
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
//utilities for managing database I/O
Util=new vci_Utilities(this);
if (!IsPostBack)
{
// check forms authentication and set isloggedin = true if the user is
logged in.
LoginCookies();
// auto logout when coming back to this page after logging in
if(isLoggedIn)
{
FormsAuthentication.SignOut();
isLoggedIn = false;
Session.Abandon();
Response.Redirect("Login.aspx",true);
}
Login_Show();
}
else
{
uid = Int32.Parse(ViewState["uid"].ToString());
isLoggedIn = (bool)ViewState["IsLoggedIn"];
}
}
LoginCookies tests to see if the user is logged in using the
Request.IsAuthenticated attribute and sets a page var (bool isLoggedIn)
based on the result. The problem is that the the SignOut() method is not
removing the authentication cookie as expected. Request.IsAuthenticated
always returns true. I have a watch on the IsAuthenticated attribute in my
VS debugger and it does not change after the Signout() method is invoked. I
test it immediately following the repost after redirection and it is still
true.
What can I do?
I have posted this elswhere in this newsgroup but this seemed an appropriate
place to bring it up again.
Thanks for whatever advice you may have.
