Intraweb Timeout with Isapi project

[Oliver Fasoli]

We built an AddressBook with Intraweb, allowing the user to perform searches
between the contacts and extract phone numbers and other informations.
The application is compiled as dll, and installed on IIS.

We have a problem: the user needs to keep this application open in the
browser for all the day, but after about 20 minutes of inactivity the
following message appears:

A time-out has occurred
within "PROJECT_NAME".

In order to restart the application, please click the link below.

We already set the Session Timeout to the maximum value (600 minutes), but
the message still appears.
The same application compiled as EXE standalone works without problems for
several hours.

How can I solve the problem?

Thanks,
Oliver

IIS 5
You might want to check the properties on your web site. Have a look in the
virtual Directory tab, App Config button, Options. The default in there is
20 mins before a session timeout.

IIS6
Check the app pool settings to ensure it's only closing doing its
'housekeeping' outside working hours.

If you are using iw9 you can also setup a timer to make an ascyn call every
5 minutes or so. This will keep the session active as long as the client
browser is open.
