Atlas Session Timeout/Expires

I have a secured area of my website that uses Forms authentication that I am trying to integrate Atlas into. The problem that I am having is that whenever my session expires and I try to do something that is within an UpdatePanel, it won't bounce me back to the login page. The remote request executes and the XMLHttp response back to my browser is the login page, but the client side components of Atlas don't know what to do with it?

Any ideas?

Hello Jonathan,

We will take a look and I will post a follow-up. Thanks for the info.


Same problem... Would really like a solutions...

Thanks for the feedback. We are working on a solution for a future release.


I have a solution, though not pretty...

Add a Meta Refresh for one second longer than your session timeout. This way the global refresh will redirect to the login page if the session times out. The Atlas postbacks will keep the session alive, so if the session is valid, the user will see a page refresh. Make sure you save state in session vars so you can return to the same point they were at.

Any update on this? We're also running into the same problem.

Thanks!

The partial page rendering work from the last CTP release has undergone some revisiting and now handles this better. It will be available in our next release. The exact date for that is not yet nailed down, probably late September or early October.
What about for Webservice calls? Will there be a way to detect a session timeout/forms auth timeout there?

Could anyone tell how it is finally done in the Release version?
