session_OnEnd dans le global.asa never fired

Hi,

I have this code in the global.asa file:

Sub Session_OnEnd()
Set oFso= CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oFileTxt= oFso.OpenTextFile("c:\debugS.txt", 8, true)
oFileTxt.WriteLine Now()&" SESSION END "&session.sessionId
Set oFso= nothing: Set oFileTxt= nothing
End Sub

Sub Session_OnStart()
Set oFso= CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oFileTxt= oFso.OpenTextFile("c:\debugS.txt", 8, true)
oFileTxt.WriteLine Now()&" SESSION START "&session.sessionId
Set oFso= Nothing: Set oFileTxt= Nothing
End Sub

when i start un new session, i have new entries in the file c:\debugS.txt
but nothing on session End.
I know that i must wait the session's end (and not user leaves).
When i force session End with session.abandon() function, i have a new
session added in the debugS.txt file but no session end entry ?!?

what happen ?
somebody can help me ?

thanx a lot

I would recommend never using session_onend. It is unreliable at best, as
you are discovering.

I suspect a permissions issue. In Session_onend, it's the IWAM account that
the code runs as, not the IUSR

Not on my machine. Take a look at the file system settings on yours.

PS. You should not be granting that user account permissions for you whole c
drive: that's a huge security hole. Permissions shold be granted on an
as-needed basis.

I think you are assuming the session on_end fires at all.

Try something besides writing to a text file to convince yourself this code
is being hit at all..

No - it fires. When there's a filesystem access problem, I do get an error
message ... oh! You weren't talking to me :-)
