PM13449: RATIONAL DEVELOPER FOR SYSTEM Z , 750 , 'TIMEOUT' ON WEB SERVICES EXPLORER

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• THis coccurs during testing SOAP services via the Web Services
  Explorer (WSE) component.
  1) Select the correct WSDL
  
  2) Add necessary Endpoint
  3) Populate test data
  4) Click Go
  5) Enter authentication Userid/Password
  6) Check result of test
  7) Fix any problems
  8) repeat steps 4, 6, 7.
  
  If step 7 takes any length of time, clicking Go,
  nothing happens. The only way to recover from this is
  to completely close WSE and start the whole process again.
  

Local fix

• Close WSE and start again.
  

Problem summary

• USERS AFFECTED:
  All users whose web service calls take longer than the default
  timeout value.
  
  ****************************************************************
   PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  ****************************************************************
  If a user?s web service call session in Web Services Explorer
  takes longer than the default timeout value, the service fails.
  

Problem conclusion

• Problem Resolution:
  The hidden preference:
  org.eclipse.wst.ws.explorer.sessionTimeout
  was added.
  
  This preference represents the session timeout of the web
  service explorer in minutes.  Entering a negative value will
  disable timeouts completely.  If the
  preference is not set the default is still 30 minutes.
  
  This preference is not exposed through the user interface, but
  it can be set in three ways:
  at the product level you can edit your plugin_customization.ini
  file to add the
  line: org.eclipse.wst.ws.explorer/sessionTimeout=<timeout value>
  
  or at the workspace level you can add a line to this file (or
  create it if it does not exist)
  <workspace>\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.runtime\.setting
  s\org.eclipse.wst.ws.explorer.prefs
  that contains this line: sessionTimeout=<timeout value>
  
  You can also set it via the config.ini.  If for any
  reason both a "hidden preference" and a config.ini property are
  both set, the config.ini property will take precedence.  The
  property to set in the
  config.ini is org.eclipse.wst.ws.exlorer.sessionTimeout
  
  e.g. org.eclipse.wst.ws.exlorer.sessionTimeout=60
