RE: [Zope] timeout on external methods?
I only got one reply to this message, from someone who said they weren't aware of any such timeout. Surely someone knows something about this. Here is some more information: As I said before, Zope is calling a Perl script which takes >5 minutes to process. Exactly five minutes after I submit the request in my browser, the following happens: IE 6.0: IE apparently automatically tries to resubmit the request, and a second copy of the perl script is launched. After 10 minutes, IE comes back with an error "This page cannot be displayed" Netscape: At five minutes, Netscape displays "The document contains no data." Opera 6.0.3: At five minutes, Opera displays "Connection closed by remote server." Is this 5 minute timeout configurable? Where does it come from? Thanks, Doug

I have a page in Zope which calls a Perl script via an External Method. The perl script takes a long time to complete -- about 8 minutes. After exactly 5 minutes, I see a second perl process launched by Zope. At 8 minutes, the first perl process completes, but I do not see the response in my browser. After 10 minutes, I get "This page cannot be displayed" in my browser, but the second perl process is still running.
Does Zope have a timeout that is causing it to re-try the perl script after 5 minutes? Is this adjustable?
That is very likely a webbrowser related timeout but has nothing to do with Zope. -aj --On Monday, June 24, 2002 09:04 -0400 "Granzow, Doug (NCI)" <granzowd@mail.nih.gov> wrote:

if you use Apache in front of Zope then try to configure the Timeout field in httpd.conf. By default it is set to 300 seconds, which means 5 minutes IIRC :-)) hth. Jerome Alet
If.....an Apache was not mentioned ;-/ -aj --On Monday, June 24, 2002 15:38 +0200 Jerome Alet <alet@librelogiciel.com> wrote:
