Web Method TimeOut

L

Lucas Ponzo

How to determine the time out for a web method ? Can I configure it for the
overall WebService ?

It's because some tasks are long runing operations.

Another situation is when debugging a web method. In the mean time, the
client thrown an Operarion Timeout Exception.

Hello Lucas,

As for the webservice, is it an ASP.NET asmx webservice? If so, when you
consuming the webservice in .net client application, there has two
setttings that will affect the webservice call timeout behavior:

** The ASP.NET webservice's server-side httpruntime timeout setting, this
is configured through the following element:

#httpRuntime Element (ASP.NET Settings Schema)
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e1f13641.aspx

<configuration>
<system.web>
<httpRuntime .............
executionTimeout="45"
.............../>
</system.web>
</configuration>

Also, make sure that you've set the <compilation debug="false" /> so as to
make the timeout work correctly.


** If you're using the wsdl.exe or VS IDE "add webreference" generated
proxy to call webservice methods, there is also a timeout setting on the
client proxy class(derived from SoapHttpClientProtocol class). This is the
"Timeout" property derived from "WebClientProtocol" class:

#WebClientProtocol.Timeout Property
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.services.protocols.webcl
ientprotocol.timeout.aspx

Therefore, you can consider adjusting these two values according to your
application's scenario. Here is a former thread also mentioned this:

Hope this helps.

Sincerely,
