How to increase wait time for receiving response from web service

Sidhu – I’m going to start charging for this soon 😉

As per the information here, you can set the executionTimeout parameter on the httpRuntime app.config setting (i.e.btsntsvc.exe.config) to increase the timeout period, as follows:

 <system.web>
   <httpRuntime executionTimeout=”90″ maxRequestLength=”4096″
    useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl=”false”
    minFreeThreads=”8″
    minLocalRequestFreeThreads=”4″
    appRequestQueueLimit=”100″ />
 </system.web>

The default is 90 seconds, so for a 5-6 minute window, you would need a value around 360.

Full options for the httpRuntime setting can be found on MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e1f13641.aspx
