Audience:  Hyperion Developer and Hyperion Planning Database Administrator

 I am the person who works on multiple tasks at same time and cannot resist myself to swing here and there.  On the recent Hyperion implementation I came across an annoying issues and it was preventing me to work on multiple data forms and data load screen.  I was trying to open an application on multiple tabs and work simultaneously.

But I was not able to work due to planning timing out error. The planning was timing out and prompting for new login

Objective

The purpose of this article is to increase time out setting of Hyperion Planning and avoid the “Because of inactivity, your session has timed out and is no longer Active Click Ok to reload the page “error message.  This common error can be seen when multiple tabs are opened on same web browser.  I goggled and found few discussion and articles online but none of them were clear enough to understand the changes.

how To

The timing out setting is control by WebLogic   “CLIENT_STATE_MAX_TOKENS “parameter. We would find this parameter under “web.xml’ file.   The files is located under /Middleware/user_projects/domains/EPMSystem/servers/Planning0/tmp/_WL_user/PLANNING_11.1.2.0/3i5tnd/war/WEB-INF/web.xml

The default “CLIENT_STATE_MAX_TOKENS” is 5. Increase this value to 15 and then increase gradually if needed.

After making the changes clean the browser cookies and  start working on multiple tabs !!!!!!!


Or alternatively you  need to go to  
Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/products/Planning/AppServer/InstallableApps/Common/HyperionPlanning.ear

and modify the HyperionPlanning.ear\HyperionPlanning.war/WEB-INF/web.xml file

CAUTION

The changes was made to tmp folder and will not hold the same value if any patch is applied or tmp folder is deleted .
