        <compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
      <authentication mode="Forms">
        <forms  defaultUrl="default.aspx" loginUrl="login1.aspx" timeout="1000000"  cookieless="AutoDetect"  ></forms>
      </authentication>
      <authorization>
        <deny users="?"/>
      </authorization>

    </system.web>

</configuration>

And the login page code i'm using

User Name<br />
    <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" 
    ControlToValidate="TextBox1" ErrorMessage="fill usename "></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
<br />

Password<br />
    <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox2" runat="server" TextMode="Password"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator2" runat="server" 
    ControlToValidate="TextBox2" ErrorMessage="fill password"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
<br />


<asp:ImageButton ID="ImageButton3" runat="server" AlternateText="sign in" 
    onclick="ImageButton3_Click" ImageUrl="~/img/str/buttons/sign in.bmp" />

        protected void ImageButton3_Click(object sender, ImageClickEventArgs e)
        {
            int flag = 0;
            SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["shopingConnectionString1"].ConnectionString);
            string s = "select * from login";
            SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand(s, con);
            con.Open();
            if (con.State == ConnectionState.Open)
            {
                SqlDataReader dtr;
                dtr = com.ExecuteReader();
                while (dtr.Read())
                {
                    if (dtr[0].ToString().Equals(TextBox1.Text) && dtr[1].ToString().Equals(TextBox2.Text))
                    {
                        flag = 1;

                        Response.Cookies["uname"].Value = TextBox1.Text;
                        Response.Cookies["pwd"].Value = TextBox2.Text;
                        Response.Cookies["role"].Value = dtr[2].ToString();
                        FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(TextBox1.Text, false);
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        Label1.Text = "your credential are incorrect";
                    }


                }

you can set the timeout value in the web.config for forms authentication. — iandayman

Regarding the sign-out problem, are you using sessions to manage the logged-in state? If yes, try setting the session lifetime to a higher value.

If pictures are not showing, it might be a problem with the path (absolute path). Right click on the image and check the path it is trying to fetch the image from. I hope you did not store the pictures in the database! You only have the links to the pictures. Right?

This is how you can change the authentication timeout in web.config:

<system.web>
    <authentication mode="Forms">
          <forms timeout="1000000"/>
    </authentication>
</system.web>

The time is in milliseconds.

No i'm just using the method i write FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(username, true).Actually i don't know how to manage the logged-in state by session.

In that case, set the form authentication timeout and check if it works.

I did this but its not working <authentication mode="Forms" > <forms defaultUrl="default.aspx" loginUrl="login1.aspx" timeout="20000" cookieless="AutoDetect" ></forms> </authentication>

Then, I guess you are overriding it somewhere in your code. Timeout set in the web.config file will have a lower priority if you are manually overriding it in your code.

For all that issue i changed timeout lots of time and also added session tag to web.config for not works for me know finally i understand authentication has nothing to do with Session.

All authentcation information is stored in the authentication cookie, When a user needs to loggin again, it means that the authentication ticket is expired.

The solution is very simple, add a machine key to your web.config or use this online tool machine key
