Increase web timeout

Post by atostaine » Thu Jan 23, 2025 2:39 am

We have a VLWEB application that uses the IBM i to grab some images and bring them into a directory on the IFS to display them. Recently that process started taking very long and our application is timing out. While we work to figure out what happened I thought I could increase the time the app/website will wait.

I saw this about response timeout but since this is IBM i and everything is running on the same machine I don't have an application server timeout.

Anyone know where I can increase the timeout?

Art, if you are using Apache webserver you could add following directive:

TimeOut {number-of-seconds}

Thanks Casey. Turns out they had a comm line go degraded. The backup is getting the request done in 50 seconds or so. But I'm going to add that.
