The request timeout occurs when it is still generating the pdf. When it finished, the file will be exported to the jsp.

But as long as there is response data being transmitted, no timeout should occur at the connection level. A session timeout is an app-server function, anyhow; clients and proxies know nothing about the session. Simon, is the timeout occuring during the request for the PDF, while it is being generated and before the action begins transmitting it? Or is the PDF downloaded successfully with the next request failing because the session timed out during the download?
