session timeout

Does "zimbra" have session timeout or not..??

Default is 12 hours. You can override this via the zimbraAuthTokenLifetime account/COS setting.

You can set it via the zmprov CLI. It should also be present in the admin console.

timeout problem with new-mail-window and and tomcat

1)
it just happened that i lost a mail i wrote in a separate window, apparentely due to timeout: when i tried to send it (after half an hour), a new login was requested and the work was lost.

2)
quite often, when i try to read the original of a message, tomcat refuses and only after a new login it works again.

does this happen also to someone else ?

has the reported old bug (previous versions of zimbra) really been fixed ?

thanks for hints

Yes, that's what happens.

What exactly happens, under what circumstances and what error messages do you see (or what's in the logs)?

WHich bug are you talking about? If it says it's fixed in bugzilla then it is, that's not to say it might not reappear.

ok - thanks !
before i go deeper into it i'll wait a bit to see if the problem is encountered also by others:

------------------
especially:
writing a new message in a separate window, adding an attachment,

problem arises when sending or saving the message.
a login-screen appears. it says: session expired
inviting to make a new login ( which does not work! )
or to login as a different user: this seems to work, but then it gives only an empty screen.
the only option left is to close the window and forget about it ( and to write the message from scratch )
