Receive LDAP Timeout Messages in the Interface

Symptom:

I see LDAP timeout messages in my web interface during searches.

Reason:

The time limit set in the configuration XML file is lower than the time taken by the servers to capture and display the results.

Solution:

To change the time limit

Go to the CHORUS_HOME/config directory.
Find the file cmgr_config.xml.
- For Compliance Policy Administration, locate the configuration file in INSTALL_DIR/config:
  - cmgr_config.xml
- For Security Administration, locate the following configuration files in INSTALL_DIR/config:
  - acf2_config.xml for CA ACF2
  - tss_config.xml for CA Top Secret
Edit the configuration file. The file is in ASCII format on the Mainframe and you edit it in one of two ways:
- FTP the file to your PC, edit it, and FTP it back to your LPAR.
- Use ispfedit:
  - Issue the EA ‘FILE_NAME‘ command to edit the ASCII file.
  - Issue the VA ‘FILE_NAME’ command to view the ASCII file.

Convert the file using one of the following commands:

iconv -f iso8859-1 -t ibm-1047 cmgr_config.xml > cmgr_config.xml.e
iconv -f iso8859-1 -t ibm-1047 acf2_config.xml > acf2_config.xml.e
iconv -f iso8859-1 -t ibm-1047 tss_config.xml  > tss_config.xml.e

Increase the time limit. Specify the time in seconds. The default is 60 seconds.
```
<searchTimeLimit>60</searchTimeLimit>
```

Save the file, and then convert it back using one of the following commands:

iconv -f ibm-1047 -t iso8859-1 cmgr_config.xml.e > cmgr_config.xml
iconv -f ibm-1047 -t iso8859-1 acf2_config.xml.e > acf2_config.xml
iconv -f ibm-1047 -t iso8859-1 tss_config.xml.e  > tss_config.xml

Important! Restart JBOSS to pick up the changes.
