The lifebeat has nothing to do with your long running response problem.
There are adaptor settings to adjust the send and receive timeouts.
That being said, I am in complete agreement with Miguel. Adjusting
the timeouts is not the best way to solve the long response issues.
If your response takes more than a few seconds your users will assume
something is wrong and will either start clicking on things, click
their bookmark to get back to the sign-in page, or simply close the
browser window.
I you need to use a long running response, you need a way to inform
your users that something is happening. A progress bar is nice, but
if not possible, you need at least something to indicate that
something is happening. The long response page is one way to do this,
but an even better way could be to use an asynchronous AJAX request.
In either case run the long processing in a separate thread as
previously suggested.

Hi!
You are trying to solve the problem in the wrong way. If you have
a long operation, you should do it on a separate thread, and use
WOLongResponse or the Ajax similar to handle the user interface.
That way, you won't have any problem with lifebeat.

Hello,
I have a WebObject application running on a Mac. Recently some
operations have taken more than 30 seconds, which forces the
application to restart. I've increased the lifebeat value to 60
through WOMonitor and when I look at how the process was launched,
sure enough, I see "-WOLifebeatInterval 60", yet the application
still shuts down if it takes more than 30 seconds. Why is that ?
How can I get this guy to behave the way I want ?
Thanks,
