Mar 11, 2010Webmail Session times out after 5mins of inactivity
Hi All,
I'm in the process of load balancing our webmail servers but I'm having issues with the webmail session timing out after 5 mins of being idle.
I've set up a WEBM...

Mar 14, 2010Hi Aaron,
1/ SNAT timeout was the other thing I thought of as well bc it has it's idle timeout set to 300sec, however I don't think I'm using SNAT. I mean it's enabled on the POOL but my connections from the outside are not being SNAT-ed so I wouldn't think SNAT comes into play.
Eg:
WEBMAIL_HTTPS_POOL
Allow SNAT Yes
Maybe I'll try Allow SNAT No and see if this is the culprit.
2/ I've tried a custom persistence profile with the idle timeout set to something higher but still getting session time outs at 5mins.
3/ On another note I went back and tried the fasthttp profile with cookie persistence and this seems to keep the session open. I noticed that the fasthttp profile has an idle timeout of 300sec. What happens after 300sec bc I'm not seeing the session close at all?
When using the fastL4 profile(s), I noticed that after 300sec I would be returned to the webmail login. With fasthttp profile, after 300sec my session is still active but I think my cookie session ID changes every 5mins??
When I first log on, the URL looks like this:
https://webmail.netspace.net.au/horde/imp/mailbox.php?mailbox=INBOX
After 5 mins, URL chnanges to this...
https://webmail.netspace.net.au/horde/imp/mailbox.php?page=1&uniq=1261572664b9d6c25dffec
Thanks.
Andy
