I would like to increase the Session time for logout. Since the option is no longer available in site configuration, what would be the best practice of changing that.
Is there something being already implemented to change? If not, I wanted to build something for tracking the session time with every request.
session.gc_maxlifetime is not reliable and doesn’t wor as expected
Not sure if that can be customized in egroupware codebase.
Please advice

Version
versions’ =>
array (size=5)
‘current_header’ => string ‘1.29’ (length=4)
‘maintenance_release’ => string ‘17.1.20180720’ (length=13)
‘api’ => string ‘17.1.003’ (length=8)
‘phpgwapi’ => string ‘17.1.003’ (length=8)
‘header’ => string ‘1.29’ (length=4

Maria db is ued
lighttpd server is used
PHP version is 7.2

The update is still in progress. If this feature is in next version,I’ll continue working on the update

Hi Vishakha.

The old 17.1? PHP configuration of your web server…
You can look with PHPInfo where the configuration is located:

Admin/Admin/PHP Information

This is different in a 19.1/20.1 docker installation. But I’m documenting that in more detail right now…

Is is only for docker installation in 19.1 ?
I have archive installation

You are running a 17.1 as an archive installation on webserver with PHP.
You have to configure THAT PHP.
Find the configuration file and adjust the session.gc_maxlifetime.
You will also find several posts here in the forum and thousands in the WWW.
