Did you restart the cold fusion server after you changed the session
variable timeout? I have gotten burned by this for other settings more
than once.

Well, quotes or no quotes, 00 or 0, Server set to timeout after 12 hours,
it
still dies.
Thought I figured it out when I discovered that when one user logged out it
killed ALL sessions for that application, but I was using <cfset
tmp=StructClear(SESSION)> and that was killing the whole session. That
problem's been removed, I just terminate the individual SESSION.vars when a
user logs out, but my SESSION vars are still dying after 15-30 minutes. No
explanation. I tried all of the wonderful solutions passed along (I
appreciate it!) but to no avail.
TO test it, I logged into the application (setting the SESSION.aID variable
to 1) then went to the grocery store and ran some errands, came back 4
hours
later (should be a 12 hour SESSION) and when I accessed my viewSession.cfm
page, all my session vars are undefined.
Anyone living in the Charlotte, NC area, I'll give you a free subscription
to www.TheRestaurantReport.com and www.TheDaycareReport.com if you can find
a solution ... the rest of you, well, I have nothing to offer but sincere
thanks and gratitude.
This is a tough one and CFAPPLICATION and SESSIONs are sparsely documented
in CFStudio Help and Ben Forta's 2 incredible CFBooks.

Actually Ben, you're right of course. Now that I think about it, we had the
quotes/no quotes issue at the same time as the max timeout issue. We
changed
both at once, and I was remembering only 1/2 of the equation. Thanks for
the
reminder. :)
