FRUSTRATION: Session keeps timing out despite setting session-timeout. WHY?

[Keith Kwiatek]

 Hello,

 I have a http and https orion jsp application for which I want the session
 timeout to be a lot longer than the default 5 or 10 minutes.... BUT the
 session keeps timing out..... I also have "shared=true" in the
secure-web-site.xml
 and default-web-app.xml  files.....

 I set my web.xml file with:

 <web-site>
 <session-config>
    <session-timeout> 1000 </session-timeout>
 </session-config>
 </web-site>

 Any and all help is appreciated!
