App Server session timeout ?

We have Sun Identity Manager installed on Sun Java Application Server 8.

After about 10 minutes, We are getting an error "Please Login First" which seems to indicate that the Application server has deleted the session and the timeout is not within the application (SIM)

I have

any assistance you could give us in getting this issue resolved. The error message displayed is "Please login first".

I have modified all the timeout values that I could find i.e :

1. Web.xml for idm

Session Timeout value is set to 30 minutes

2. Sun Java System Application Server Console

Idle Timeout: 12000 seconds for thread-pool-1

Connection Pools (__TimerPool, PointBasePool)

Idle Timeout : 15000 Seconds

Max Wait Time: 1800000 miliseconds

3. Each login module configured in the SIM application at 1 hour.

Nothing seems to effect the timeout.

any assistance would be appreciated.

Not sure if this has anything to do with it but I am seeing some security events in the log i.e. [#|2007-01-10T14:09:55.893+0930|FINE|sun-appserver-pe8.0.0_01|javax.enterprise. system.core.security|_ThreadID=14;| No realm configured for this application, SSO does not apply.|#]

The latest "No realm configured..." message has nothing to do with your 10 minutes timeout issue.

The most probable reason for your problem is misconfiguration of your IDM Server. It should have been done automatically when IDM was installed.

I would recommend checking IDM release notes/installation docs first. If you find nothing there you can try modifying appserver_root/domains/domain1/config/domain.xml or appserver_root/domains/domain1/config/default-web.xml. Look for timeout values in both of those files and try to increase them accordingly.

Thanks Mate,Now that works... only I've changed so many settings that I don't know which was the final determining factor.
