Session timeout - BI Launch Pad

[former_member859326]

Hi,

We use BI Launch Pad (in Business Objects 4.2) to view our reports. Default session timeout is 20 minutes in web.xml file. When the user is logged in, session gets expired before 20 minutes. We increased the session timeout value from 20 minutes to 60 minutes and restarted all BOBJ Servers. But still we have this issue.

Apart from below the XML file, are there any config files (or a registry) where we have to modify this setting ?

<BOE_INSTALL_DIR>\tomcat\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\web.xml

Please advise.

Regards,

Asanka Haradasa

You may also need to update the value of 'AdminServiceClientSessionTimeoutSeconds' 
in the
[InstallDir]\BusinessObjects\webapps\enterprise115\WEB-INF\config\EnterpriseCache.properties file 

to match the value of SessionTimeout in web.xml.

Other than these two files, there are no other config files in which you need to modify the session timeout setting.
