<p>I'm also interested in increasing the default session time, if there is a solution? iHub 3.1</p>

<p>This can be done in the web.xml for iPortal.</p>
<p>In a standard installation, the web.xml should be located here: ./BIRTiHubVisualization/modules/BIRTiHub/iHub/web/iportal/WEB-INF/</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The setting to adjust for session timeout looks like this:</p>
<p style="margin-left:40px;"> </p>
<div style="margin-left:40px;"><context-param></div>
<div style="margin-left:80px;"></div>
<div style="margin-left:80px;"><param-name>LOGIN_TIMEOUT</param-name></div>
<div style="margin-left:80px;"><param-value>1200</param-value></div>
<div style="margin-left:40px;"></context-param></div>

<p>Do changes made to this xml file require an ihub restart? Assuming they do.</p>

<p>You're welcome.</p>

<p>Changes to the web.xml require a restart of the iPortal. If you are using a standalone iPortal then you only need to restart the iPortal. If you are using the integrated iPortal built into iHub, you will want to restart the entire iHub. Technically it is possible to restart the bundled iPortal without restarting the rest of iHub but in my experience it is best to restart the whole thing.</p>

<p>Make sure to create a backup copy of the web.xml before editing it.</p>
