Timeout Smartview


A few weeks ago some customers had issues with Smartview and the retrieval of some data. If they wanted to fetch data that took longer that x seconds Smartview would give them the following error.

 



After some digging around: google, metalink. I found out that the issue had to do with the versions of IE (IE7, IE8, IE9 and IE10). Microsoft changed the timeout settings to 30 seconds. Preciously (IE 6) this was 60 seconds.

To resolve this issue, the default timeout settings must be modified. You can change this to do the following: start ‘regedit’ and browse to

"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings"

Add the following variables:

KeepAliveTimeout
ServerInfoTimeout
ReceiveTimeout

 
 
 
 
 
 
Remember to make it a DWORD (32bit) and add a hexadecimal value of 900000. This will timeout after 15 min. Once you changed it logout as the user an log back in and your set to go and retrieve a dataset.

EPMA 11.1.2.1 and HFM 11.1.2.1.104 bug

Just to give you a heads up.
 
The bug I described in http://got2be-hyperion.blogspot.nl/2012/10/epma-patch-11121600-bug-parameter.html
 
Is also there in the 11.1.2.1.104 patch, if you want to duplicate the HFM application use the 'copy application util'  or LCM.
