Hi,

When i login to my application from one users credential, it gets logined to the application with another user's credential and shows Welcome Another user's name.This issue is occuring on production server whereas in development server the code works fine.

The issue occurs in different machine say user A is loggon onmachine A and User B is loggon on Machine B.The User A, when loggined see Welcome user B.

I tried to look into the issue, most the places I am using session and abandoning the session on logout's click,whereas I have not used cache object and the application logic seems to be fine.

We have used ADO.NET entity framework 4.0 with WCF service.

Can anybody suggest the possibilities why this issue is occuring.

Thanks.

It's impossible to say without more detail for sure, but my guess is that you are storing the 'currently logged in user' in a static or global scope (i.e. as a static property or an entry in a static dictionary), instead of in the session. You need to store the current user in the session (i.e. in Session["some string"]).

If you are using Membership with a custom membership provider, make sure that you aren't doing anything in the provider in a static scope, either.
