Re: [OFBiz] Users - Transaction timeout

Hi Christopher,

I too have noticed something similar and I'd like to help you find what
is causing this problem.
First of all:

the value that you set in the TRANSACTION_TIMEOUT parameter is used in
the following class:

framework\widget\src\org\ofbiz\widget\screen\ModelScreen.java

in the method "renderScreenString" (line 120)

Could you try to add a few debug statements in that class to see if the
parameter is correctly used?
Also, you could test the value of the "beganTransaction" boolean
variable returned in line 120:

beganTransaction = TransactionUtil.begin(transactionTimeout);

If it is false, this means that the transaction has been already started
(with a different transaction timeout?) in a different place... if this
is the case, maybe the transaction timeout set in line 120 is ignored?

Hope this helps,

Jacopo
