Sitecore.SessionProvider.Redis.StackExchangeClientConnectionAsync

-

We had encounter the following error frequently in our application.

Problem Id:

System.NullReferenceException at Sitecore.SessionProvider.Redis.StackExchangeClientConnectionAsync+<EvalAsync>d__22.MoveNext

Message: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Exception type: System.NullReferenceException

Failed method: 

Sitecore.SessionProvider.Redis.StackExchangeClientConnectionAsync+<EvalAsync>d__22.MoveNext

Call Stack:

StackExchange.Redis DLL version: 2.1.58

The application is deployed on Sitecore Managed Cloud Service Azure PaaS and uses Redis app service.

I have applied the below fixes as well as the following articles but the issue is not resolved:

  1. Increased the min worker thread pool to 100
  2. Increased polling Interval to 60
  3. Tuned Redis Configuration as described here: Tuning Redis Configuration Settings
  4. Added sslprotocols=tls12 to Redis connection string
  5. Sitecore PAAS Redis Exception
  6. Azure Web App Redis timeout exceptions when under load

Solution:

After investigation and Google, we have found that our web.config contains the following settings: 

<add applicationname="private" compression="true" connectionpoolsize="1"
  connectionstring="redis.sessions" connectiontimeoutinmilliseconds="3000"
  name="redis" operationtimeoutinmilliseconds="5000" pollinginterval="60"
  pollingmaxexpiredsessionspersecond="20" retrytimeoutinmilliseconds="16000"
  type="Sitecore.SessionProvider.Redis.RedisSessionStateProviderAsync,
  Sitecore.SessionProvider.Redis"/>

<add key="aspnet:AllowConcurrentRequestsPerSession" value="true"/>

Based on this information we can confirm that the reported behavior is a registered bug.

To track the future status of this bug report, please use reference number 505522. More information about public reference numbers can be found here: How to use public reference numbers

To workaround this issue, we consider setting aspnet:AllowConcurrentRequestsPerSession to false. Please note that it is also not recommended to enable aspnet:AllowConcurrentRequestsPerSession according to Sitecore doc as it might cause unexpected behavior such as data loss. For more information please refer to this documentation: Walkthrough: Configuring a private session state database using the Redis provider

However, if you wish to keep aspnet:AllowConcurrentRequestsPerSession enable, you could consider an upgrade to XP 10.3 as this bug is fully resolved in that version.
