Session Timeout increase to 2 hours.

I always struggle with this because I never have to change it often enough. I'm trying to increase my session timeout. I added this to the web.config

<system.web>

<sessionState timeout="120"></sessionState>

</system.web>

But my timeout is still like 10 minutes or so. How do I increase this?

hi there,

is it possible that session time out is calculated in seconds and not in minutes?

i am setting it at web.config, global.asax, default.aspx and at the web server to 30 (minutes) and session last exactly for 30 seconds.

Thanks

 

I am using Send activity to call another Workflow service. I am getting the following error: The HTTP request to 'http://fulfillment.odp.skinit.com/OrderWorkflowService/AssemblyWorkFlow/ReleasePhysicalAssetsWithArt.xamlx' has exceeded the allotted timeout of 00:01:00. The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout. How do I increase the timeout in the Send Activity? Thanks.

Hi, In my web application, I want to alert users 5 minutes before their session timeout. If the users want, they can either extend their session or ignore the message - in which case after session timeout they will be redirected to the login page (I'm also using forms authentication in my site, so have set the authentication cookie expire time to the session timeout). I know I can do the alert with window.setTimeout, but I want to get user's respond and refresh the page if they want a session extension. How can I do that, in which event and whether I can do this in C# code behind. And also, should I implement this in the base page or somewhere else? How can I implement the auto page refresh - should I use a hidden button and click it from Javascript? It's great if someone can give a sample code for this.  

The following error is issued following 10 minutes of system inactivity: An unsecured or incorrectly secured fault was received from the other party. See the inner FaultException for the fault code and detail. ---> System.ServiceModel.FaultException: The message could not be processed. This is most likely because the action 'http://tempuri.org/IParticipant/SearchParticipants' is incorrect or because the message contains an invalid or expired security context token or because there is a mismatch between bindings. The security context token would be invalid if the service aborted the channel due to inactivity. To prevent the service from aborting idle sessions prematurely increase the Receive timeout on the service endpoint's binding. Per the message, I tried changing the app config on the client from     receiveTimeout     ="00:10:00" to     receiveTimeout="10:00:00" but the change seems to have no impact.  What am I missing?

The default timeout for an Http Request in SharePoint Foundation 2010 is 120 seconds*.  Any Http Requests above this 120 seconds will be met with a "Request timed out" error as displayed in the SharePoint logs: Unexpected     System.Web.HttpException: Request timed out. Note: The SharePoint logs can be found at:     C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS To increase this timeout you will need to modify the web.config file for the SharePoint Website.  If you are using the default SharePoint configuration, then the web.config file will be found at: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80\web.config Open this file in Notepad and then scroll down to the system.web > httpRuntime element (about half way down the file).  To increase the timeout, add the executionTimeout attribute to the httpRuntime element with a value of the number of seconds for the timeout.  For example, to increase the timeout to 5 minutes, add an executionTimeout of 300 like this: <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="51200" executionTimeout="300" /> In the default SharePoint Foundation 2010 web.config file it will look like this: Save the web.config file and now the timeout for HttpRequests will have been increased (Of course you need to ask why a request is taking more than 2

Dear Sir,   When SSAS makes query from relational table it time out [in my SSAS project timeout value is set to 0 in datasource connection string].

Hi,  I have some problems when using AJAX with updatepanels. I have an ASP.NET webapplication with a login that uses form authentication with the timeout set to 5 min. After 5 min of idle the site should be redirected to the login.aspx page. My problem is that after using the site for 5 minutes when clicking on contents inside an updatepanel I get a messagebox with the following error: A Runtime Error has occurred.Do you wish to Debug? Line: 4723Error: Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException: An unknown error occurred while processing the request on the server. The status code returned from the server was: 12031  I think that it has something to do with the ajax updatepanel since when I remove the updatpanels this problem does not appear. Instead the site is redirected to login.aspx as expected. When searching on the problem on google I see alot of people having similar problem, but I haven't found suitable solution. Any suggestions?

I know there are several articles explaining how to warn the user before their session times out, but so far none of them have worked for our scenario, so I'm hoping someone here will be able to help me figure this one out...  Here's what we've got:

Our application uses SQLServer to store session state.  We've got it set to timeout in 60 minutes.  Unfortunately (I fought hard against this, but lost the battle) our application uses popups for several major screens.  So tracking the session timeout on the client side doesn't really work, because I have no idea what window the user is in at any given point.  I've tried the solution where you inject Javascript into the page using the current session timeout on each request, but again, because the user could be actively using the application in a different window, it doesn't work for us.  So I guess I have a couple key questions:

1. Is there any way to get the timeout for a session without triggering a request to the server, which would just renew the session?
2. Is there a way to track the session timeout value across multiple windows? 
   I believe there is a limit to the number of "branches" the main window can have in our app.  In other words, the user can only be 2 levels deep from the main/root window, s
