Session Time Out in Asp.net 4.0 on IIS 7.5

asp.netiis-7.5session-timeout

I want to set timeout for my web application for 12 hours.

I have done setting in web.config file as:

<system.web>
     <sessionState timeout="720" />
</system.web>

As suggested in the following post:

  • I came to know that the Application Pool recycles in every 20 minutes (if the pool is ideal).

    And I also checked for changing the application pool time out using one question about application pool timeout setting
  • But still the session time-out is not set to 720 minutes. Do I need to change machine.config file for changing the session time out.
    But I think the properties of machine.config file should be overriden by web.config file.

Kindly provide me some idea.
