    Keep getting session timeout after being logged in

    Hello,

    I am runninng Umbraco version 7.3.1 assembly: 1.0.5772.27555

    I am running the project through Visual Studio 2015 and debugging and after I log in and edit a couple of things I get logged out and taken back to the login screen with a session timeout error.

    Any advice on how to prevent this from happening?

    Thanks :)

    Lee

    You can control session timeout in your web config:

    <configuration> <system.web> <sessionState timeout="20"></sessionState> </system.web> </configuration>

    Up the timeout to 60 if you need that long.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I tried that and same result. I log into backend. Make a couple of changes, then I get logged out. Any other ideas?

    Thanks again :)

    I keep getting kicked out the back office in 7.3.1 as well - I think it is a bug as this didn't happen anywhere near as often as it is happening now.

    The appSetting key used to control this - which I've put high to 2 hours but doesn't seem to be being considered in this version.

    <add key="umbracoTimeOutInMinutes" value="120" />

    I agree, this is happening to us as well. We have set umbracoTimeOutInMinutes to 1440 and it seems to log me out all the time.

    Question, how many local instances of Umbraco do you happen to be running when this occurs?

    I've had this occasionally and I put it down to running multiple (different) local instances on localhost and guessed it was something to do with the AuthCookie of one instance destroying the other due to essentially running on the same domain.

    This happens in our production environment which only runs 1 instance.

    i'm running 7.3.1 as well.. And regardless of the umbracoTimeOutInMinutes key and session timeout in system.web i keep getting thrown out of the backend after a random amount of time..

    Seeing that more people have this problem i think it is a bug.

    I have noticed this as well after a 7.31 upgrade. Seems Shannon has already been working on a fix: https://github.com/umbraco/Umbraco-CMS/pull/915

    I'm still seeing this problem in v7.3.2.
