How to make a page run long time.

[Rabbit63]

Hi:

There is a function in the code-behind of one my page, which will run a
long time (almost 9 hours). How can I make the page run so long?

In the codebehind, I set:

Page.Session.Timeout=54000
Page.Serever.ScriptTimeout=54000

But no use. It was terminated after ~4 hours.

What can I do?

Thanks

You might want to change your architecture and maybe hand off the task to
something like a windows service.

The website should just be there to kick off the action and check the
status, the service would continue to work independent of IIS or IE.

Peter,

You should fire the code that does the processing in a separate thread and
then have the page poll for whether it's done using a meta refresh.

Here's an article on how to do so:

Is it really wise to leave a thread running when the page has stopped
processing. I can definitely see the potential for problems such as being
hard to debug and not being under the control of the system administrator.

It shows up as a process just like any other... So the sys admin could kill
it.

As far as debugging, same thing. Yes, it's more difficult, we're talking
about a much more entailed process here, but there are ways to debug and
watch any thread.

For what you're talking about doing it's the only way I can think of.
Because there is no web browser client / server combination in the world
that I know of that will run as long as you want it to.
