Configuring Session/Screen Time-out
The Portal’s Tomcat session and screen time-out is defined in the portal.properties file, located in:
Linux:
/opt/aptare/portalconf/portal.properties
Windows:
C:\opt\aptare\portalconf\portal.properties
Note: The default value for the session time-out for a new install is 21,600 seconds or 6 hours. The default value for the session time-out for an upgrade is 3600 or 1 hour.
To change the session time-out value
Edit the portal.properties file and modify sessionTimeout:
#The Portal environment
portal.screenTimeout=1800
portal.sessionTimeout=21600
portal.applicationUrl=http://your/config</applicationUrl>
The time-out value is in seconds—that is, 20 minutes is 1200 seconds.
IMPORTANT: After modifying this value, you must restart Tomcat for the change to take effect.
To change the screen time-out value
Edit the portal.properties file and modify screenTimeout:
#The Portal environment
portal.screenTimeout=1800
portal.sessionTimeout=21,600
portal.applicationUrl=http://your/config</applicationUrl>
The time-out value is in seconds—that is, 20 minutes is 1200 seconds.
