Hi

object reference not set to an instance of an object

I get this error after a time of using the web application on the server. I restart the IIS and the problem is solved, but again after a time the same error.

anyone have any idea about the cause of this error?

I'm using Class, singleton class
Framework 3.5, Windows Server 2003

Thanks

Hi..

Somebody, somehow, is closing the object, so you lost it..

You will have to log all the things that happens on the object, specially the point where it gets closed, so you can know who close it...

Are you possibly storing someting in a session variable?
Is the "after some time" about 20 minutes?
You may need to test its existance before using and then reinstate when it is not there.

of course if you are using hte app costantly, the session shouldn't be an issue

Exactly, I'm using the application costantly and when it happens all users who enter first time get the same message.

Which object does it relate to in your code?

Temporarily Set Debug = true to find out.

If you can't work out from the resultant error what is the the cause of the problem then please post the relevant code on this forum.


One thought, are you using a session variable to update a database field with the value of the session variable? If so then when the session variable expires (20 minutes usually) then the next time you reference it then it won't be available and then new users won't be able to read the value from the database.

Unfortunately without more information we are all going to be guessing at the solution.
