When you print a PDF report in a server environment, the server uses the PDF writer to create the PDF which is stored in the Temp folder under a obscure name. That file is served to the user, and eventually it's automatically deleted from the Temp folder.
I want to know how much time goes by before the temporary PDF file is deleted - and if there's a way to adjust that limit?
The background is security concerns, the shorter time - the better.
Hi,
The issue was supposed to be fixed with 11.20 SR2
The timeout setting is
[Settings 7]
ServerTempSecTimeout=15 where the time is in seconds
Needs to be added to the QVS settings.ini file

Hi,
What version are you running (there was a bug in older version)? The default is 20 minutes.

We are currently running 11.20 SR2, does that version have that bug?
And, you wrote "default is 20" - is there a way to change it?
Thanks!

Thanks again, that's exactly what I needed!
One thing though, I do believe the timeout is set in seconds and not minutes as you mention - that's at least what my testing reveals.
You are correct it is in seconds.
