Parameter

session-timeout

Example


XML
<session-config>
  <session-timeout>20</session-timeout>
</session-config>


Description

The session timeout for SuperWEB2 users, in minutes.

This setting does not appear in web.xml by default, but you can add it if you want to control how quickly a SuperWEB2 user's session will expire if they leave their browser window open without interacting with SuperWEB2.

Adding this setting to SuperWEB2's web.xml file will override the default timeout setting (typically 30 minutes) that is configured for all Tomcat applications in the main Tomcat web.xml file (<tomcat_home>\conf\web.xml).

You will need to restart SuperWEB2 or the Tomcat service before any change to this setting will take effect.
