Session Inactive time is negative

Hi all

On eZ 4.2, the users keep getting disconnected, including the admin users on the back office.

When I look at the "sessions" on the admin site (Admin->Session), for each user, I see negative values (eg "-351:-53:24") in the 'inactive time column' and 'time skew detected' in the 'inactive since' column.

So I assume the continuous session disconnections come from that time discrepancy but I can't find the setting that needs to be changed to fix it.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue ?

Thanks a lot in advance

Benoit

Negative inactive times are given by different session timeout seetings in fronta and admin siteaccesses - please fix that.

There is an issue open in the ezp tracker already about this.

When it happened to me, users did not get disconnected because of that, but ymmv...

Thanks for your reply Gaetano

I applied the session timeout settings to both admin and front and it seems to solve the negative inactive times issue

I also hope it will fix the user disconnection issue ...
