When we try to upload a long file to a servlet we encounters
a problem with
the session

over a slow
connection (sometimes
several hours).
It seems that the problem is in the way the session timeout
is specified in
the
Are you sure it's the _session_ timeout, not the browser's connection
timeout?
The session timeout defaults to 30 minutes. That should be plenty of time
to load anything, even a Word document at 9600 baud,...
More likely, the browser is timing out when it doesn't get a response
quickly enough.
