Sessionstate mode =SQLServer

I have in web-config: <sessionState mode="sql server" ..>

I tried the code below but line { string cookieHeader = Request.Headers["Cookie"]; }

gives me an Error. Is it related to the fact that sessionState mode is Sql server??

If so how can I modify the below code to check if session is expired when sessionState mode="sql server" ??

I found the below info at http://forums.asp.net/t/1138444.aspx. It shows how to check if session is expired

protected void Page_Load()
{
if (Context.Session != null)

{
if (Session.IsNewSession)
{
string cookieHeader = Request.Headers["Cookie"];

if ((null != cookieHeader) && (cookieHeader.IndexOf("ASP.NET_SessionId") >= 0))

{
Response.Redirect("sessionTimeout.htm");
}
}
}
}

Thanks

Yes I tried this code. I did debug it also. It does Not give an error (sorry for the unclear statement in my original question).

The expression { null != cookieHeader } returns true;

but cookieHeader.IndexOf("ASP.NET_SessionId") returns -1 ..so

(null != cookieHeader) && (cookieHeader.IndexOf("ASP.NET_SessionId") >= 0) returns false

and line Response.Redirect("sessionTimeout.htm") never executed.

How can I modify the code to check if session is expired when sessionState mode="sql server" ??

I think you can remove the

if ((null != cookieHeader) && (cookieHeader.IndexOf("ASP.NET_SessionId") >= 0))

condition and see if it redirects correctly.
