We experienced the problem of client session timeouts (browser timeout) and
the following sorted it.
Platform specific:).
Window NT
This works for MS IE 4 up.
The default from what I have read is 5 minutes. To sort this problem out,
the user
needs to make changes in Regedit.
1. Go into Regedit (Start/Run and type Regedit). (Be careful here as
this holds your machine settings!)
2 .Add the ReceiveTimeout DWORD value with a data value of <number of
seconds>*1000 in the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings
If you want to set the timeout to 20 minutes, you will need to set the
ReceiveTimeout data value to 1200000 (<1200>*1000).
Also, click the decimal box (defaults to hexadecimal).
3. Restart your computer.

Belinda Sloan

Subject: session timeout
I am trying to upload a big file say 20MB from a remote machine onto my
server and there are three problems
1. servlet request-response timeout
2. servlet session timeout
3. client session timeout
If i am delaying the response after the request in the servlet this can
happen but to keep the session valid i need to send another request that
will not allow me to keep the servlet request valid.
Any ideas about uploading large files please let me know soon.
