The default session timeout for a WebObjects application is 3600 seconds (1 hour). You can extend this timeout to a maximum of 28800 seconds (8 hours) using the -WOSessionTimeOut argument in JavaMonitor.


How to Set -WOSessionTimeOut in JavaMonitor

  1. Open JavaMonitor in your browser (typically: http://localhost:56789).

  2. Navigate to your Application.

  3. Click Configure on the desired instance or application settings.

  4. Locate the field labeled Additional Arguments.

  5. Add or update the argument:

    -WOSessionTimeOut=10800

    (This sets the session timeout to 3 hours. Adjust as needed, up to a maximum of 28800 seconds.)

  6. Save the changes and restart the application instance for the new timeout to take effect.


Example:

If you want to maintain the default timeout:

-WOSessionTimeOut=3600

To extend it to 8 hours:

-WOSessionTimeOut=28800
