Admin Session Timeout doesn't work

[williamkida]

This problem is easily reproducible.

Context:
Eclipse GlassFish 7.0.14
JDK versions 11.0.22
JDK version 17.0.8
JDK version 21.0.2
Windows 11 Pro
Derby 10.15.2.0

---

Reproduce by doing the following:

1. In Glassfish Admin Console go to Domain -> Applications Configuration -> Admin Session Timeout.
2. Change Admin Session Timeout to 0, which should mean that the Admin Console never times out.
3. Wait for 30 minutes.
4. Click on any Admin Console link. Expected behavior: the Admin Console will remain logged in as user admin, it will not require another login.
5. Result: You will be directed to the login page.

Hi, I tried to reproduce this but it seems to work. To session timeout is applied on the next login. So you need to log out and log in to apply the new timeout. Then it works. I tried to set the timeout to 1 and I got a login screen after 1 minute. When I set it to 0, the session wasn't logged out even after 60 minutes of inactivity.

Hi, thanks for the reply, what version of Glassfish are you using, and what version of Java and what operating system?

[OndroMih]

I most probably used Zulu JDK 17 on Linux (Ubuntu) and GlassFish 7.0.14 or the latest version at that time.

Still doesn't work for me, I'm using Windows 11, Glassfish 7.0.14, JDK 11.0.22
