Timed logout

Submitted by sugarloafah on Fri, 05/08/2011 - 11:42

Hey gang

I am keen to change the duration of the timed logout - is this possible? I have searched the site for topics or references and can not find any :(

Hi Mark,

This is actually a setting in Tomcat the web application sofwtar ethat OpenVPMS runs in so no direct way to change in OpenVPMS itself.

The technical solution is to edit the Tomcat server.xml file (found in Tomcat conf folder) and change

	    <Connector port="8080" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"

maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"

enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"

connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true"
/>

	    <Connector port="8080" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"

maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"

enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"

connectionTimeout="0" disableUploadTimeout="true"
/>

i.e change the connectionTimeout attribute to 0.

Possibly best if your I.T. company or OpenVPMS softwar eimplementer do this. :-)

Cheers

Tony

Actually, you need to change the session-timeout in:

$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/openvpms/WEB-INF/web.xml

Its currently configured as:

<session-config>
        <session-timeout>120</session-timeout>
        
    </session-config>

You'll need to stop and restart the app for the change to be seen.
