  • Where is the code, what did you try and what do you meand "but not getting"? Have you activated session state at all? The default timeout is 20 minutes, so you should be able to read anything you store in Session state for at least 20 minutes. If you can't either your code is wrong or you haven't activated Session state at all. – Panagiotis Kanavos Jul 31 '13 at 08:31

  • add timeout=2000 in connection string. – Janki Jul 31 '13 at 08:45

From code:

Session.Timeout = 60; // this will set 60 min timout

From config:

<sessionState timeout="60" />
