SugarCRM 4 - Howto disable the logout timeout

[etiennep]

Hello all,

I have read the manual and it states that this is a php configuration varible. Can someone please say what php configuration varible... as I am unable to find one that is related. All my php,ini stuff have their session timeout set to when the browser closes and that has no effect on the logout timeout of 30 minutes. The other "cookie" information sets its expirary to 2 months from the date and time of the login. If it is indeed a configuration parameter then I think it would be part of config.php in the sugar install - and I would apreciate if someone can give me the parameter and its value.

Thank you.

The value you're looking for in your php.ini file is:

session.gc_maxlifetime

The value on the opposite side of the equals sign is in seconds. By default, this is set to 1440 which is 24 minutes.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Regards,

Another idea is just to add a plugin into your browser that just refreshes your page so you don't get logged out.

Once installed you just press the new button or page tab and set the refresh time for the tab you are looking at within the browser. As long as one of your tabs for SugarCRM has this active, then your session should not time out.
