Standard PHP timeout is 1440 second (24 minutes) of inactivity. &nbsp;That timeout gets reset any time you click on anything that accesses the server or reloads the page. &nbsp;You have to have changed something to get it to be only 5 minutes.

Windows or Linux?<br />

On Windows, just click Start and type the filename. You should get the location. Or install Search Everywhere.<br />
<br />
On Linux, type this while root:<br />
find / -name config.inc.php

After opening a table with phpMyAdmin and working with it a while, the connection is dropped automatically after something like 5 minutes of inactivity. &nbsp;Then I have shut down phpMYAdmin , reopen it, and go open my &nbsp;table again, which is a real nuisance. No one else has access to this computer so I would prefer to leave the connection open until I shut down phpMyAdmin, or at least leave it open for 30 minutes or so. &nbsp;Is there any way to do that?<br />
