Web Server Sessions

Postby maccalder » Thu Jul 20, 2017 4:34 am

Hi All

Having a slight issue with WD Free - I have a project programmed in Unlimited which I want to run in WD Free - it ticks all the boxes of "1 device at a time, 1 page, no restricted controls" etc. however I am getting issues in that I connected fine when I tested it (with my iPad), however I left the site (with my iPad with me), another user attempted to connect and they just get "Session disconnected... Attempting to reconnect".

I am assuming this is because WD had created a session key for my device, and even though this device is no longer connected, the session key persists and won't allow a new session owing to Free's single session limitation?

How do I force sessions to time out more rapidy - perhaps if not used for 10-15 minutes?

Hi,

You are right, as long as you didn't close your first session properly, a second one won't be allowed.
We are working on a solution for this, be assured that we are aware of the problem.

Cheers,

Janina

Hi Janina

How do I correctly close a session? I could not see any functions for managing sessions.

Regards

Hi Mac,

With "close a session" I literally mean to manually close the browser or tab which is connected to the interface.
There is currently no solution to do this cut from WD itself, this is where we are currently investigating solutions.

Cheers,

Janina

What happens if you close the web server through a script and then open it back up?

Also known as: "Have you tried turning it off and back on again?"

I am giving calling WDLoadProject a go to clear sessions - hopefully that works.
