Setting Server Timeout in asp?

[Hermes]

Hi All,

Is there a way to specify the server timeout for IIS in an asp file rather
than with IIS. As I would just want one page to have a long timeout period
but limit the other pages in the site.

Kind regards,
Hermes

Hello,

Is way for set timeout for application itself. Not for single page.

For single page "timeout" (what you exactly mean under "page timeout"?) you
should use something like this:

For all pages with "short timeout":
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="<%=120%>; URL=<%=Application
("BASEHREF")%>/my_extra_timeout.asp">

For all pages with "long timeout":
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="<%=Session.Timeout * 60%>;
URL=<%=Application ("BASEHREF")%>/my_extra_timeout.asp">

With best regards,

Should you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Yes, the ScriptTimeout property of the Server object is what you want. A
script with the following statement times out if the server takes longer
than 100 seconds to process it:
Server.ScriptTimeout = 100

IIRC the Server.ScriptTimeout property can be set to a value _greater_
than the IIS setting, but not less.

Here's a reference in the ASP FAQ, always a good place to check:
