Hi,

I have read a few articles about increasing the timeout which deal specifically with silverlight/async/web setups.
I would like to increase the default timeout of 1 minute for my winclient app.

System.TimeoutException: The request channel timed out while waiting for a reply after 00:01:00. Increase the timeout value passed to the call to Request or increase the SendTimeout value on the Binding. The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout.

I tried to implement some of the suggestions from

http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/wcf/thread/692f5631-c40c-40d7-9a98-8d0d7eb0994b
http://www.ideablade.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1438
http://www.ideablade.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1523

They are not helping me yet.  Anytime i make changes to the client app's config file, it fails with an ideablade exception - it can't read my config file correctly.


Thanks in advance,
Dallas

There are some sample config files in the Learning Resources which may help.  See the "Deployment\Snippets\Sample N-tier config files" folder.
 
In DF2009 you do have to modify the config files to change the default timeout values.  I'm not sure what exception you're getting, but if the samples don't help then post the exception details or debug log here.

I updated my app.configs with the serviceModel details as provided in the learning resources. Notes:

1. Remove some <objectServer> details from both app.configs
2. comment <gzipMessageEncoding> sections because visual studio complains 'The element binding has invalid child element gzipMessageEncoding...

The client fails to start.

The server, when visited with a browser gives a 'bad request, invalid hostname'

A few things to look at -
 
1) The VS Intellisense complaint about the gzipMessageEncoding is innocuous.  As long as IdeaBlade.Core.dll is available at run time, you can use this encoding.
 
2) The bindings need to be the same on both client and server.  Your client binding still has the gzipMessageEncoding defined but has commented out the bindingElementExtension.  Make sure that both sides either use gzipMessageEncoding or do not.
 
3) If you're using the ServerConsole as the BOS host, then rename the server config file to ServerConsole.exe.config, if using the Windows Service, then name it ServerService.exe.config.  The same logic applies for your client, make sure that the .config in use at run time is a loose config file with the same name as the executable.  The reason for this is that the serviceModel configuration won't be processed correctly from a config file which .NET doesn't see as the application's configuration file (DevForce will see and try to read the serviceModel information in a config from a non-standard location, but it doesn't always do so correctly.)
 
If you're still having problems, post the entire contents of the debug logs from both client and server.
