There is an option for customizing the timeout, but this doesn’t seem to work and the normal timeout still applies. How does this work?
Hi Joeri,
I’ve had a look myself as well and I also didn’t manage to get the timeout to apply properly. IIRC it did work before, so it might be something on IIS level that makes it no longer work - i really can’t say.
I’ve planned in a ticket for the plugins team to investigate further some time soon.
Greetings,
Miroslav
Hi Joeri,
I looked into the issue and found my development notes, from which I remembered how was this supposed to work
For the Configurable timeout to work, the key in the webconfig of your application should be set to false, like so:
If you are curious, for details you can see the Remarks section here HttpServerUtility.ScriptTimeout Property (System.Web) | Microsoft Learn
After changing this to false in my local environment, I indeed see my requests return with HTTP 500 timeout from the server.
The comment block you see there, I believe is automatically generated, which also makes quite a lot of sense to me. Although I do not know what are the other usages of this property (I suspect, that it might be needed for enabling Trace, however I am not completely sure)
In the SVN directory where your application code is generated - I indeed see that the debug is set to true (not sure what is the case in your production environment)
I hope this answers your question.
Greetings,
Miroslav
