Today I was running into some issues with hanging axis clients because the remote side was not returning a response in certain circumstances (the concrete reason is still unknown ;).
My clients were blocking in HTTPSender line 506 (CVS Head of today), but it took quite some time to find this issue in my application, because we never thought that one of the underlying webservices could be the reason. Now I know that I can set the default timeout easily, but shouldn't we have a default SOTimeout for clients different to 0? Something like 30 or 60 seconds? Jens
