Yes, but that's not my point. I am suggesting a CHANGE in Glassfish

so that there are DIFFERENT timeout settings; one for "normal"

requests, and another for "upload" (and perhaps "download", if possible)
requests,

since such transfers can take a loong time and still be okay. That's why I
would suggest

that it's probaby a good idea to introduce a new setting for this.

Aha? I didn't know about the magical value -1. Please add that information,
too,

to the documentation (in both places).

 

Cheers,

Per
