Re: [KCFusion] problem with session timeout

[Bruce Phillips]

I don't believe the application tag will overwrite the default settings in the CF server.  Our web host (Crystal Tech) has the timeout for session variables set to 20 minutes and we cannot overload it using CF code internal to our CF pages or as part of the URL.   Bruce   Bruce Phillips Society of Teachers of Family Medicine 1-800-274-2237 ext 5405 [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5/19/2004 10:39:07 AM >>> Ok after researching my session var issue a bit I found this >If you're using IIS on your server, take a look at the timeout on it. That has bit me before. Also make sure the time out on the cf server is what you >want it to be. I have my default timeout for session vars set at 20 mikes but I also have <cfapplication name="entireSite" sessionmanagement="Yes" setclientcookies="Yes" applicationtimeout="#CreateTimeSpan(0,2,0,0)#" sessiontimeout="#CreateTimeSpan(0,2,0,0)#"> Does not the application tag override the default settings? It seems to be taking only the default setting. I then checked IIS and there is a setting in there called connection timeout. Its currently set at 900 sec (15 mikes). Does that have something to do with CF loosing the session var too early or does that have nothing to do with it? I guess im not understanding what a connection time out would have to do wit h a session var stored in memory. Adaryl "Did you reboot?"
