AuthenticationClient - GetSessionExpirationDate () method returning null value.

Raghav_Tatte

Hi,

I am using below code to get the authentication tokens and session expiry date for that token.

AuthenticationClient authClient = new AuthenticationClient(); Authenticate User(UserName, Pwd) strTokens = get Authentication tokens

//Get Expiry date for session public static DateTime? dtExpiry = authClient.GetSessionExpirationDate(ref OTAuthentication);

I am getting the token string for given user id and password. but the GetSessionExpirationDate() method is returning a null value. I am using this value to check when the session is going to expire and renewing the session again. but as this value is null, I am not able to check when thesession is expiring.

Can i get some info abvout how to handle the session in this case.

is there any other way to performe this operation, so that the session will not expire until execution of my program.

Thanks and regards,

Raghav Tatte

Could you check your Content Server admin.index page, under 'configure security parameters' > Cookie Authentication Information? Is it set to never expire?

Do you also have access to Content Server via CS-IDE (eclipse plugin), or Builder?

Hi Kevin,

You are correct.

In one of the environments where GetSessionExpirationDate() method is returning a null value, the Cookie Authentication Information was set to 'never expire'.

While in other environment where GetSessionExpirationDate() returns correct exipration date, the Cookie Authentication Information was set to 'Expire minutes after last request'.

Making this change in first environment has worked for us.

Thanks a lot for your valuable input !!!
