ClientHttp and "Session has expired" error

[Adrian Pay]

Hi,

After switching BrowserHttp to ClientHttp in our SL app, we got "Session Expired" problem from Telerik Report Viewer.
Any suggestions/answers will be highly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi,

You're implementing your own handling for the http stack and you should also provide your own session handling. To do that you need to implement the IReportServiceClientFactory interface and its only method should create and return a new instance of the ReportServiceClient class which you can configure. More information on that is available in the Using Custom Bindings help article.
The following articles contain information on handling session with Client Http Stack:

Generally if you are not using charts or images in the report, you should be able to get the report through just by setting the <sessionState cookieless="true"></sessionState> in the web.config of the Silverlight.Web project.
