Operation has timed out in ASP.Net

[khurram rathor]

Hello, I'm developing a web appliation in ASP.Net. My web appliation communicates with Web Services for several operations. Everything is working fine except one operation. Web application uploads a file and send it to web service in the form of Bytes by calling its function. Web Service do some operations on that file, which may take several minutes to let Web Application to wait. But after 90 seconds, my Web Application throughs an exception that the "Operation has timed out". I tried to change the timeout parameters in web.config file like... < httpRuntime executionTimeout="1000" maxRequestLength="409600" useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="false" /> also doing this < sessionState mode="InProc" stateConnectionString="tcpip=127.0.0.1:42424" sqlConnectionString="data source=127.0.0.1;Trusted_Connection=yes" cookieless="false" timeout="1000" stateNetworkTimeout = "1000" /> But these things are not controlling that TimeOut Exception. I also tried to change the TimeOut Parameters from IIS but non prevail. Are there any other parameters in web.config file for controlling this Exception? or I will have to do something else. khurram rathor

Khurram, Have you tried changing the Timeout property on your proxy class? To do this: 1) make sure you have your web application project set to "show all files" (on the project menu) 2) expand your web application "Web References" 3) expand the web service you're having problem with 4) expand Reference.map 5) Open the Reference.cs file The Reference.cs is the definition of your proxy class, notice it derives from System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol. Try setting the Timeout property higher (I'd do this in the constructor). The default is 100000 ms (right about where you timeout, right?) You can set it to Timeout.Infinite if you want, at which point it's up to IIS to timeout the request. Hope this helps, Bill
