Re: New to CFMX - session problem
Actually CF's sessioning has always been via cookies which have a 20-minute lifespan (or as configured via sessiontimeout or the CFAdmin). Since 3.1.1, anyway, sessions have outlasted the browser being closed by the value of the timeout... that is, the session will die 20 minutes or sooner after shutting the browser down, depending on how long it's been since the last activity on the site. Afaik, when using J2EE sessions they should expire when the browser closes because J2EE sessions are in-memory cookies. You could also try using cfapplication's setclientcookies="false" attribute to prevent them being set at all, but that'll mean you need to append url_token to your links and includes to keep the sessions intact as the user navigates your site. Hitting a link with no ID/Token will kill the session and cause a new one to be created. Hth, J On 5/23/05, Mike Klostermeyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I upgraded a server from CF 4.5 to MX 6.1.

Sorry, using J2EE Sessions variables does fix the problem. -Original Message- From: Mike Klostermeyer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 23, 2005 3:53 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: New to CFMX - session problem I upgraded a server from CF 4.5 to MX 6.1.

New to CFMX - session problem
I upgraded a server from CF 4.5 to MX 6.1. Previously, when a user closed their browser (without 'logging off'), the session expired. This is no longer happening. From what I can find, MX uses session variables differently, but I can't find anything that tells me what I need to do to get sessions to expire when the browser closes. I have tried to enable/disable J2EE Session variables from within the administrator, which did not solve this problem. Anything further I need to do? Thanks for your help.
