Sorry if this has already been asked before.. ik it can get quite annoying but im running into this issue with my session expiration.

 

I have the following code that I saw someone post to re-login.

community.on('sessionExpired', function(err) {
	if (err) {
		console.log('sessionExpired: '+err);
	}

  console.log("Re-Logging in to Steam...");
  community.stopConfirmationChecker();
  client.logOn(logOnOptions);

});

However when it hit that code it gave the following output..

/home/node_modules/steam-user/components/web.js:9
                throw new Error("Cannot log onto steamcommunity.com without first being connected to Steam network");
                ^

Error: Cannot log onto steamcommunity.com without first being connected to Steam network

Again sorry if this has already been asked..i've been looking around for quite some time now but all I see is.. "You have to just re-login" But just saying that doesn't really help me understand.

 

I'd be greatful for a useful response! Thanks

None of the code you posted would result in that error. That said, you want to use webLogOn instead of logOn, assuming client is a node-steam-user instance. The web session is distinct from the client session. It connects as a client, then uses that client session to obtain cookies for a web session. The web session expires but the client session doesn't, so webLogOn just gets new cookies using that same client session.
