In 7.2 and earlier, we changed the session timeout in two web.xml files (tomcat/conf and webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF) worked. In 7.4 this no longer seems to work, is there now another configuration somewhere that handles this?

Did you change it to longer or shorter?

Background: You can also configure the session duration within Liferay (through portal.properties) and some JS code might cut off your session at the time configured there.

I'm not aware that any of this changed in the past decade though.

Thanks. I made it longer (720 min) but it's not taking. I haven't tried setting it in portal.properties, I'll try that.
