Set Session Variable From Another Process

[mcandrewe]

I have a process which will keep on running until a session variable is changed from False to True. Is it possible for another process to set this variable?

So the original process will run for an hour then the other process starts, passes in the variable and the original one stops?

Probably to do that you will need access to database to check current values of your variable.
Maybe instead of checking session variable, something simpler i.e. checking if a txt file exists, which would be generated by the second process? Or maybe using environment locks?
