Weblogic admin console timeout

[albert kao]

An idle period (time interval) on the Weblogic admin console in a web browser will cause it to timeout and ask the user to relogin.
How to increase the idle period time?

Hi Albert,

You will have to do the required settings inside the console application.

You can find the console application at the below location


D:\WLS1032\wlserver_10.3\server\lib\consoleapp\webapp\WEB-INF

You will find a weblogic.xml

Look for a session descriptor tag


<session-descriptor>
<timeout-secs>3600</timeout-secs>
<invalidation-interval-secs>60</invalidation-interval-secs>
<cookie-name>ADMINCONSOLESESSION</cookie-name>
<cookie-max-age-secs>-1</cookie-max-age-secs>
<cookie-http-only>false</cookie-http-only>
<url-rewriting-enabled>false</url-rewriting-enabled>
</session-descriptor>

change the timeout and the invalidation-interval-secs as per your choice and restart the weblogic server

Wait for the configured time and you will see that the user's session has been timedout and you will be forced to login again

Hope this helps

Rob
