sessionTimeout?

Is it enough the define the sessionTimeout in web.xml or have I set up the timeout in my ApplicationServer (JBOSS), too?

The web.xml session-timeout should be enough to enable session timeouts in your application.

No, unfortunately not. I have to set up this:

Now, it works.

I have found under
[URL=

]http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-12439[/URL]

that I can set the timeout at the method-level via annotation in my stateless sessionBean:

@TransactionTimeout(10000)
void doThat()

Is this not a better approach instead of hardcoding it in the server.xml file:-)

Based on your first post, i assumed that you were looking for the web application's session timeout.

No, unfortunately not. I have to set up this:

 <mbean code="com.arjuna.ats.jbossatx.jta.TransactionManagerService" name="jboss:service=TransactionManager"> <attribute name="TransactionTimeout">10000</attribute> <attribute name="ObjectStoreDir">${jboss.server.data.dir}/tx-object-store</attribute> </mbean>
Now, it works.

@TransactionTimeout(10000)
void doThat()

Your second post is talking about a transaction timeout and is not related to the session timeout of a web application. Which one exactly are you interested in? Please provide more details about what you are looking for.

Transaction Timeout.

I use JBOSS 4.2 and want use the annotation, but this does not work oi

However, this does not work, when I set up the timeout in server-xml, then it does work. But I want to use the annotation (and no ctx-lookup setTransactionTimeout).
