I suspect the timeout you're seeing the tpcip-level timeout, which is perhaps not controlled/accounted for in the Call timeout.
Try creating a simple web service that sleeps for 10010 seconds and invoke that... Hope this helps, Patrick -----Original Message----- From: Julien ALLANOS [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 30 December 2004 14:16 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: connection timeout for Call Hello, How can I specify the connection timeout for the Call.invoke() method? I've set: call.setTimeout(new Integer(10000)); call.setProperty(Call.CONNECTION_TIMEOUT_PROPERTY, new Integer(10000)); but timeout still happens 3-4 minutes after the invoke(). Im' talking about connection timeout, that means, when the remote host is unreachable (wrong or non-attribued IP address like 1.1.1.1). Thanks for any help. -- Julien ALLANOS Silicomp-AQL
