Problem Description
Cached SSO domain login credentials are not expired is failing. SSO Clients are not silently re-authenticated to the datasource.
Findings
In the failed case:
integrated MicroStation SSO credentials are expiring. The Default lifetime for Client-side cached login credential used to silently re-authenticate a client to the Integration Sever is not working correctly and affecting the cached SSO/domain login. The SSO credentials should not expire.
As referenced to the cfg file, cached SSO/domanin login credentials are not expired:
; Default lifetime (in seconds) for client-side cached login credentials, used to
; silently re-authenticate a client to the Integration Server in the event of a
; network disconnect. When using ProjectWise authentication, after this timeout
; occurs clients will be required to re-input their ProjectWise login credentials.
; A value of 0 (or less) is illegal. Use the "User Credential Expiration Policy"
; General user settings (in the ProjectWise Administrator) to set the policy for
; user expirations.
;
; If this setting is commented out, a default expiration value of 10 hours is used.
; Note that this applies to ProjectWise authenticationonly -- cached SSO/domain login
; credentials are not expired.
;
UserLoginTokenTimeout=36000
