I want to set timeout for my web application for 12 hours.I have done setting in web.config file as:\[code\]<system.web> <sessionState timeout="720" /></system.web>\[/code\]As suggested in the following post:
- I came to know that the \[code\]Application Pool\[/code\] recycles in every 20 minutes (if the pool is ideal).
And I also checked for changing the application pool time out using one question about application pool timeout setting - But still the \[code\]session\[/code\] time-out is not set to 720 minutes. Do I need to change \[code\]machine.config\[/code\] file for changing the \[code\]session\[/code\] time out.
But I think the properties of \[code\]machine.config\[/code\] file should be overriden by \[code\]web.config\[/code\] file.
