Timeouts

Optiva: \inetpub\wwwroot\FsOptivaWeb\Web.config file

Time-outs for Optiva are specified in the Authentication and SessionState sections of the Web.config file. The authentication time-out forces the user to log in again when the session has been idle. This protects the application from usage by someone else.

The http timeout setting defines the number of seconds before the ASP.NET web service kills the currently running process. This applies to the initial login, a long-running workflow script, or extensive rollup, for example.

In the Web.config file in \FsOptivaWeb directory, specify the "timeout = " values for closing down services not in use. The default value is normally adequate; you can adjust the settings.

The authentication time-out forces the user to log in again when the session has been idle. This protects the application from usage by someone else. The authentication time-out should be less than the sessionState time-out.
```
<!--  AUTHENTICATION
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name=".ASPXOPTIVAWEB" loginUrl="Login/

 FsFrmLogin.aspx" timeout="120" />
</authentication> 
```
The sessionState protects the memory on the computer. If a specific session has not done anything for a period of time, then the information that is stored in the application is discarded; the user must log in again.
```
<!--  SESSION STATE SETTINGS
<sessionState mode="InProc" stateConnectionString= 
"tcpip=127.0.0.1:42424" sqlConnectionString="data source= 
127.0.0.1;user id=sa;password=" cookieless="false" timeout="130" />
```
A transaction time-out defines the number of seconds before the ASP.NET web service kills the current process. This applies to the initial login, a long-running workflow script, or extensive rollup, for example.
This example specifies 48 hours for the time-out. This is appropriate for a long rollup.
