Session Timeout issue for Web application hosted on IIS
asked on
Hi,
I am working on a Web application which has session Timeout set in the file Global.asax as below:
Private Sub Session_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Session.Timeout = 30
End Sub
When I change the timeout and test on my local machine, it works perfectly to the minute (Lower or higher value).
Now we deploy on server (IIS / Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard) and the timeout does not work. It gets capped at 20 min. I can reduce the timeout, but cannot increase it more than 20 min. Something else is interfering with the timeout. I am not sure what it might be on the server.
Any ideas what can be causing that?
