I have the same "5 min problem" as well and spent a week trying to
resolve it. We are using LoadRunner from Mercury to do some benchmarking
tests and this is where we encountered this problem. In the end, I just
wrote a small servlet that sits is a loop for 5+ minutes and then prints
something out. This servlet works perfectly fine from any browser. But
if I hit it from LoadRunner, after about 5 minutes I get a "Wininet
12002" error which I looked up to be a INTERNET_TIMEOUT error as defined
by Microsoft's Wininet library. So it is probably some kind of a Wininet
issue rather than Apache or JServ.
If anybody has any more ideas on how to get this working, please let me
know as this issue is currently unresolved.
Thanks,
