HttpServerUtility.ScriptTimeout Property

Gets and sets the request time-out value in seconds.

Namespace:  System.Web
Assembly:  System.Web (in System.Web.dll)

'Declaration
Public Property ScriptTimeout As Integer
'Usage
Dim instance As HttpServerUtility 
Dim value As Integer 

value = instance.ScriptTimeout

instance.ScriptTimeout = value

Property Value

Type: System.Int32
The time-out value setting for requests.

ExceptionCondition
HttpException

The current HttpContext is Nothing.

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

The time-out period is Nothing or otherwise could not be set.

The ScriptTimeout property can be set in the Web.config file by setting the executionTimeout attribute of the httpRuntime element. Setting the time-out programmatically with the ScriptTimeout property takes precedence over the Web.config setting.

NoteNote:

If you set the debug attribute of the compilation element to true in the Web.config file, the value of ScriptTimeout will be ignored.

The following example sets the request time-out period to 60 seconds.

Server.ScriptTimeout = 60
