Spring Boot Java Config Set Session Timeout

Question

How can I configure my (embedded) Tomcat Session Timeout in a Spring Boot Application?

public class SessionListener implements HttpSessionListener{

@Override
public void sessionCreated(HttpSessionEvent se) {
    se.getSession().setMaxInactiveInterval(5*60);
}

@Override
public void sessionDestroyed(HttpSessionEvent se) {

}}

I have a SessionListener but I have no idea in which class I have to add this Listener to the Context.

Answer 1

server.session.timeout in the application.properties file is now deprecated. The correct setting is:

server.servlet.session.timeout=60s

Also note that Tomcat will not allow you to set the timeout any less than 60 seconds. For details about that minimum setting see https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/issues/7383.

Answer 2

You should be able to set the server.session.timeout in your application.properties file.

Answer 3

spring boot 1.0 server.session.timeout=1200
spring boot 2.0 server.servlet.session.timeout=10m

Answer 4

i think it's good idea to set 1s for springboot
