Hi Jim and others,

My comment here moves us away from the original issue a bit, but...

As far as I can tell, the socketTimeoutInterval doesn't seem to interact with the 'load' command. At least, the 'socketTimeout' message isn't sent when 'load' exceeds the socketTimeoutInterval. That's my experience. Am I missing something?

Thanks -
Phil Davis

Hi Tiemo,

It's probably not a Rev issue but a machine specific issue. Please do a
Google search on "socket keepalive windows." (keepalive is one word)
Something on that machine is set wrong. You'll find a lot of information on
this topic and what to look for on the machine. As far as Rev goes, the
socketTimeOutInterval is all you normally have to adjust.

Hi Jim,
yes, I have followed this excellent roadbook from Eric and everything
works
fine so far. Up to now, where one beta tester got these mysterious
timeouts
(which I verified with URLStatus()). So it isn't a general problem, but
seems to be an issue on his PC (Win XP) or his Provider line. I was
wondering if there are other settings as the socketTimeoutInterval I
can
control from Rev or if I have to take it as it is?
Thank you
Tiemo

Hi Tiemo,

Would you go here:

http://www.sosmartsoftware.com/?r=revolution_didacticiels&l=en

and down to tutorial #018 How to download data from the Internet.
Download
the tutorial. Everything you need to know should be there including
using
the load command.

I tried it with setting the socketTimeoutInterval to 20000 and even
30000
before the load url, but this guy still gets a timeout at most
attempts.
After 5-10 retries he can download the file of about 4MB.

Any other tweak or any other idea, what could be going on here and
where to
look for?

Thanks for any ideas
Tiemo

Hi Tiemo,

Hello,

I am experiencing sometimes timeouts with a load URL at a beta
tester.
Testing the same download from same server at the same time,
runs
smooth.
Obviously the bottleneck seems to be the internet connection or
provider of
the tester, though he is supposed to have a 2000 kBit line. On
the
other
hand he can surf the net and downloads mails without a problem
-
beside of
slow performance some times.

Are there any options to tweak the load URL / internet
connection
from
within Rev, like setting the timeout, retrying or anything
else? Or
do I
just have to live with that behaviour and have to tell my
customers
to
retry?

Thanks for any experience
you can get and set "the socketTimeOutInterval" like:
...
put the socketTimeOutInterval into alt_interval
set the socketTimeOutInterval to 20000
## Do your internet stuff...
set the socketTimeOutInterval to alt_interval
...

that's the way we do it and it works fine so far :-)

Tiemo
Best

Klaus
