Connection timed out

[andrewdps]

Hi,

I'm on RHEL and trying to work on a product.The installation went fine but I'm trouble accessing it from a remote terminal.

When I try to access the admin page through web browser,I get access to that page and be able to log on to that page from the local host on which the server is running.However, when I try to access the same page from remote desktop or remote laptop, it tries for few seconds and get backs to me displaying

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The connection has timed out

The server at ******.***.****** is taking too long to respond.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this something to do with the configuration settings in the server??

And the ping command for the destination ip address works fine.However,when I type the url of that address it says forbidden.

Any clue will help me a lot.

Thanks

Andrew

Hi,

This is usual problem you will come across with apache server.

First try increasing the Timeout Value,

Timeout 40

Something around 30-40 will do.

Above tweak will fix this error. If it doesnt fix the error, then try increasing the value of below variables to fix the same,

MaxSpareServers 5
MaxClients 10
MaxRequestsPerChild 1000

If the problem still persists, copy & paste the configuration settings to check.

Thanks for the response.

I've installed tomcat application server for the application we are using.Is that different from the apache server??
