Setting the Session Timeout

You can set the session timeout for Incorta web applications by configuring Tomcat's default conf/web.xml file. For 4.x, you will find this file in:

<incorta-install-dir>/IncortaNode/Services/<long-service-directory>/conf

To make the change, open conf/web.xml in a text editor and change the value in the <session-timeout> tag to the number of minutes before the session is terminated.

The example below shows the session timeout set for 30 minutes.

<!--=================== Default Session Configuration ================-->
<!-- You can set the default session timeout (in minutes) for all newly-->
<!-- created sessions by modifying the value below.-->


<session-config>
<session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
</session-config>
