Session time out

Greetings,

I am totally new to piwigo. I have set it up and something I am finding is that if I am logged in, and not active on the site, it logs me out in very short time. I haven't determined precisely the timeout but it seems to be not much more than 60 seconds. Is this expected behaviour? Is it controllable?

Any assistance appreciated.

Thanks,
Carl

Re: Session time out

Defined session length is 3600 seconds. But if you are logged in, a cookie is set and you should be remembered forever.

Probably your browser throwing you out.

Params: include/config_default.inc.ph

Code:

// session_use_cookies: specifies to use cookie to store
// the session id on client side
$conf['session_use_cookies'] = true;

// session_use_only_cookies: specifies to only use cookie to store
// the session id on client side
$conf['session_use_only_cookies'] = true;

// session_use_trans_sid: do not use transparent session id support
$conf['session_use_trans_sid'] = false;

// session_name: specifies the name of the session which is used as cookie name
$conf['session_name'] = 'pwg_id';

// session_save_handler: comment the line below
// to use file handler for sessions.
$conf['session_save_handler'] = 'db';

// authorize_remembering : permits user to stay logged for a long time. It
// creates a cookie on client side.
$conf['authorize_remembering'] = true;

// remember_me_name: specifies the name of the cookie used to stay logged
$conf['remember_me_name'] = 'pwg_remember';

// remember_me_length : time of validity for "remember me" cookies, in
// seconds.
$conf['remember_me_length'] = 5184000;

// session_length : time of validity for normal session, in seconds.
$conf['session_length'] = 3600;

// session_use_ip_address: avoid session hijacking by using a part of the IP
// address
$conf['session_use_ip_address'] = true;
