Check In Fails Consistently

beanmf · Post by **beanmf** » Fri Jul 08, 2005 1:36 pm

I find the following error messages occur.
"Session is no longer valid. EIther the server restarted your session or your session timed out. You must login again to reauthenticate."

"The Vault server could not be contacted to perform the operation. Your network connection to the server may have been interrupted."

"Username or password supplied is invalid." (clearly untrue as it is remembered)

I find I can check in or check out if I connect, find the file and perform my operation in less than about a minute. After that, I need to reconnect.

I applied the web.config changes suggested, after which I am unable to connect to Vault at all (no errors, and no duplicate keys), so I rolled back to the original web.config.

Here is the latest log. I connect, get repository and attempt a checkout. Unless I request it within 30 seconds or so, my session expires and I have to login once more. Eventually I was able to download my source code but all attempts at checkout failed. I can get checkout to work on a single file, but I have to work really quickly to sneak in under the session limit.

It seems to me that Vault is not installed under wwroot anyway, so I am not sure that the Sharepoint problem really applies. I don't really know enough to be sure.

Hosting service has turned off the HTTP keep-alives checked box. I still get "Session is no longer valid. Either the server restarted, or your session timed out. You must login again to reauthenticate." if hitting the refresh button. Refreshes ok until for 40-60seconds, and then throws the exception. They are willing to reinstall the msi if you really think that would help.

Before you have them run the installer, make sure that they have disabled all of the automatic recycling options for IIS 6.0

# Open IIS Manager
# Select Application Pools and right click on the correct application pool for your Web site
# Select Properties.
# Select Recycling tab

There should be no recycling options set. Installing Vault 3.0 or 3.1 with the msi should set most of the commonly-intrusive settings.
