How to increase request timeout in IIS?

Question

How to increase request timeout in IIS 7.0? The same is done under application tab in ASP configuration settngs in IIS 6.0. I am not able to find the asp.net configuration section in IIS 7.0

Answer 1

Add this to your Web Config

<system.web>
    <httpRuntime executionTimeout="180" />
</system.web>

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e1f13641(v=vs.85).aspx

Optional TimeSpan attribute.

Specifies the maximum number of seconds that a request is allowed to execute before being automatically shut down by ASP.NET.

This time-out applies only if the debug attribute in the compilation element is False. To help to prevent shutting down the application while you are debugging, do not set this time-out to a large value.

The default is "00:01:50" (110 seconds).

Answer 2

In IIS Manager, right click on the site and go to Manage Web Site -> Advanced Settings . Under Connection Limits option, you should see Connection Time-out .

Answer 3

To Increase request time out add this to web.config

<system.web>
    <httpRuntime executionTimeout="180" />
</system.web>

and for a specific page add this

<location path="somefile.aspx">
    <system.web>
        <httpRuntime executionTimeout="180"/>
    </system.web>
</location>

The default is 90 seconds for .NET 1.x.

The default 110 seconds for .NET 2.0 and later.

Answer 4

In IIS >= 7, a <webLimits> section has replaced ConnectionTimeout , HeaderWaitTimeout , MaxGlobalBandwidth , and MinFileBytesPerSec IIS 6 metabase settings.

Example Configuration:

<configuration>
   <system.applicationHost>
      <webLimits connectionTimeout="00:01:00"
         dynamicIdleThreshold="150"
         headerWaitTimeout="00:00:30"
         minBytesPerSecond="500"
      />
   </system.applicationHost>
</configuration>

For reference: more information regarding these settings in IIS can be found here . Also, I was unable to add this section to the web.config via the IIS manager's "configuration editor", though it did show up once I added it and searched the configuration.

Answer 6

I know the question was about ASP but maybe somebody will find this answer helpful.

If you have a server behind the IIS 7.5 (eg Tomcat). In my case I have a server farm with Tomcat server configured. In such case you can change the timeout using the IIS Manager:

• go to Server Farms -> {Server Name} -> Proxy
• change the value in the Time-out entry box
• click Apply (top-right corner)

or you can change it in the cofig file:

• open %WinDir%\\System32\\Inetsrv\\Config\\applicationHost.config
• adjust the server webFarm configuration to be similar to the following

Example:

<webFarm name="${SERVER_NAME}" enabled="true"> 
  <server address="${SERVER_ADDRESS}" enabled="true">
    <applicationRequestRouting httpPort="${SERVER_PORT}" />
  </server>
  <applicationRequestRouting>
    <protocol timeout="${TIME}" />
  </applicationRequestRouting>
</webFarm>

The ${TIME} is in HH:mm:ss format (so if you want to set it to 90 seconds then put there 00:01:30)

In case of Tomcat (and probably other servlet containers) you have to remember to change the timeout in the %TOMCAT_DIR%\\conf\\server.xml (just search for connectionTimeout attribute in Connector tag, and remember that it is specified in milliseconds )

Answer 7

Use the below Power shell command to change the execution timeout (Request Timeout)

Please note that I have given this for default web site, before using these please change the site and then try to use this.

 Set-WebConfigurationProperty -pspath 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST/Default Web Site'  -filter "system.web/httpRuntime" -name "executionTimeout" -value "00:01:40"

Or, You can use the below C# code to do the same thing

using System;
using System.Text;
using Microsoft.Web.Administration;

internal static class Sample {

    private static void Main() {

        using(ServerManager serverManager = new ServerManager()) { 
            Configuration config = serverManager.GetWebConfiguration("Default Web Site");

            ConfigurationSection httpRuntimeSection = config.GetSection("system.web/httpRuntime");
            httpRuntimeSection["executionTimeout"] = TimeSpan.Parse("00:01:40");

            serverManager.CommitChanges();
        }
    }
}

Or, you can use the JavaScript to do this.

var adminManager = new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.ApplicationHost.WritableAdminManager');
adminManager.CommitPath = "MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST/Default Web Site";

var httpRuntimeSection = adminManager.GetAdminSection("system.web/httpRuntime", "MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST/Default Web Site");
httpRuntimeSection.Properties.Item("executionTimeout").Value = "00:01:40";

adminManager.CommitChanges();

Or, you can use the AppCmd commands.

appcmd.exe set config "Default Web Site" -section:system.web/httpRuntime /executionTimeout:"00:01:40"

For AspNetCore, it looks like this:

<aspNetCore requestTimeout="00:20:00">
