Just an accidental omission, you can just add your own public void Session_State(object sender, EventArgs e) method no problem though.

Or create a HttpModule to do it.

Yeah this is what I thought,

I added a public one...

Thanks.

I'm getting an error when I try to load the Global class I made (below)

Any idea why ? I tried to manually delete the .NET Framework cache files but it didn't help

If I just put the class in App_Code there is no error - but it does not get loaded...

Once I add Global.asax to the root - I get this error:

Compilation Error

Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.

Compiler Error Message: CS0433: The type 'ASP.global_asax' exists in both ...

Global.asax looks like this:

<%@ Application
    Language="VB"
    Inherits="Global"
    CodeBehind="Global.asax.vb"
%>

The class is in VB and looks like this: 

Imports System

Imports System.Web

Just delete App_global.asax.dll from bin folder.

Thanks, that worked.

Do you know why that file is there by default ?

I reverse engineered it and saw this inside:

protected DefaultProfile get_Profile()
{
    return (DefaultProfile) base.Context.Profile;
}

You can look at the source on codeplex (or download it)

The only method that is implemented is:

 
 
protected virtual void Application_End(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Log.Add(LogTypes.System, BusinessLogic.User.GetUser(0), -1, 
 
"Application shut down at " + DateTime.Now);
}
 
 

I saw that,

I'm actually wonder if I can keep both - since my class inherits umbraco.Global

But even if I rename my class to Global2, once I add Global.asax it gets the error above

(if I keep the DLL)

but I'm not sure if App_global.asax.dll in the bin folder is the same from the Umbraco source code that does Log.Add(...

I don't actually know why that file is still there, or where it keeps coming from :P.

You can delete the file and it wont cause problems (I delete it constantly :P)

slace, R U compiling the whole Umbraco solution with your Umbraco web site ?

I think it should only reappear if deploying the web application.. ?

if anyone knows what can make App_global.asax.dll reappear please drop a line.

Hell no, I don't run the source in my applications, I use the official releases. What i meant by "deleting it constantly" is that I delete it when ever I set up a new site.

Got it, thanks.

is working on a reply...
