Time out
« on: February 07, 2012, 06:32:18 AM »
Hi
Would anybody know how to change the setting so that the weather display window doesn't time out after 30 seconds. I would like to have the window showing live weather up all the time so I can display the info in a Marina reception for the customers to see what the weathers doing at that time.
Thanks

I think you will have to change the value on this line in wdlconfig.xml

Code: [Select]
<sessionTimeOut>10</sessionTimeOut>
I think it's in minutes.

Can you provide the URL to your WDL page so we can see the config file as WDL shouldn't time out in less than 1 minute...

The minimum is 1 minute and if you change the config line that Axelvold posted to "0" it should never time out...

Quote
To configure the duration of inactivity required to trigger the time out simply enter the
required time in minutes in this tag –
 
<sessionTimeOut>15</sessionTimeOut>
 
by default the time out value is set to 15 minutes. Entering 0 will disable this feature.

You have:
<sessionTimeOut>15</sessionTimeOut>

Which should allow for 15 minutes of viewing before a time out, I have your WDL page open now and I can confirm it is lasting longer than 30 seconds as it has been open and loading data for over 4 minutes now, make that 5...

However if you want no time out change the 15 to 0

Andy,

The easiest way would be if you have a control panel from your host and then just edit the config file:

Change 15 to 0 and save the file...

I still see <sessionTimeOut>15</sessionTimeOut>

I forced a browser reload and tried a second browser and they both sill show 15...

How did you make the change?  If on your local computer did you upload the new wdlconfig.xml to your web site and replace the existing one?

Hi Bob
I changed it in my WDL configurator screen and uploaded the lastest setting via the ftp uploader.
It looks to be working fine my end?
Thanks

Hi again Andy,

I see you are using a differently named config file and in that file the Time out is indeed showing '0' :)
