I am connecting to an Oracle database in ASP.Net using SQLDataSource. My connection string is:

<add name="ConnectionString3"
 connectionString="Data Source=sml; User ID=sml; Password=sml; Unicode=True; Pooling=False;"
 providerName="System.Data.OracleClient"/>

Problem is that when I look at v$session on the database, I can see two locked sessions. They don't clear till I shutdown the ASP.Net server.

i.e. the query

select * 
from v$session b
where status='INACTIVE' and schemaname='SML' AND program='w3wp.exe'

always shows two sessions which don't clear till I shutdown the server.

What is the proper way in ASP.Net to connect with an Oracle database and then manage the connections to clear after connecting with database? I meant how can I logout from the database after querying it?

Are there any session settings to do in the Oracle database?

What does it mean to you to have a "locked session"? What query are you running and what results are you seeing that leads you to believe that there is a problem? – Justin Cave Nov 16 '12 at 4:17

What is a "permanently locked session"? That's not a term I've ever come across so I'm very unsure what you're seeing and why you believe what you are seeing is problematic. – Justin Cave Nov 16 '12 at 4:21
