I need to delete a file when the session expires. I tried it in the global.asax file 'onsessionends' . It is not working. I used Request.Mappath() to get the application path. Else where should I write the code. Please help.....

You can use Server.MapPath to get the path or store the path in web.config. and delete the file from global.asax OnSessionEnd event

It is not working.

This is my code:

Sub Session_End(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        Dim dirName As String = Server.MapPath("STNXML\" + Session.SessionID)
        If Directory.Exists(dirName) Then
            Directory.Delete(dirName, True)
        End If
    End Sub

I think the session_end will not fire when I close my browser...
Thanks for the response......

whenever u close the browser window,
call Session.Abandon
then will end and ur code will work
i think so.
try ur luck

Session may not expire at the moment you close your browser. But certainly that event will fire.
