EAS Timeout Issues

I was trying to see fun ways to start working using a disconnected remote session and one thing that caught me in a web was the endless woes with EAS timeout . Each time I had to open a fresh session and it wasn't until recently I stumbled upon this document from the online help.

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E40248_01/epm.1112/eas_help/frameset.htm?timeout.html  is the link the document.

To fix this issue, We need to unzip the EPM_ORACLE_HOME\products\Essbase\eas\server\AppServer\InstallableApps\Common\eas.ear file














The document encourages us to edit the zip file seperately. However, we can achieve the same using the 'open archive' option in 7zip.

Once this is open , proceed to open the eas.war file














Navigate to the web.xml file present on WEB-INF tree.










Open the file and scroll to the session-timeout section. The default value is 45 and you can change it to the value appropriate to your setup .  In my case , I set it to 180.








The link does not specify any restart required but it is always better to do it. Post this, you should be able to stay logged in to EAS longer.
