Do ColdFusion scheduled tasks have a default timeout? - coldfusion

Do scheduled tasks follow the application settings for timeouts?
Can you override with <cfsetting requesttimeout= "x">?
Which request timeout takes priority CFIDE/Administrator or cfsetting?

Yes they follow the application timeout.
<CFSETTING> override the CFIDE timeout.

You can set a timeout specifically for the scheduled task in its setup with the "Timeout (sec)" field.

There are two timeouts you need to worry about with CFSCHEDULE.
The timeout used by the CFHTTP tag
which is the one you provide when you
create a new task.
The timeout you provide as the default in Server Settings: Timeout Requests after ( seconds).

While this is an old post, it is still an open question. After a few tests, we found out that scheduled tasks have a default timeout of approximately 5 minutes.
After setting the timeout inside the task manager our process, which takes about 7 Minutes ran through with no problem.

Deploy function with long running time on Google Cloud Run

If I understood it well, Google Cloud Run will make an API publicly available. Once a request is received, an instance is started and the job is processed. Once the job done, the instance will be terminated. Is this right?
If so, I presume that Google determine when the instance should be shutdown when the HTTP response in sent back to the client. Is that also right?
In my case the process will run from 10 to 20 Minutes. Can I still send the HTTP response after so much time? Any Advice on how to implement that?
Frankly, all of this is well documented in the cloud run docs:
Somewhat, but this depends on how you configured your scaling https://cloud.google.com/run/docs/about-instance-autoscaling
Also see above, but a request is considered "done" when the HTTP connection is closed (either by you or the client), yes
60 mins is the limit, see:
https://cloud.google.com/run/docs/configuring/request-timeout
Any Advice on how to implement that?
You just keep the connection open for 20mins, but do note the remark on long living connections in the link above.

Change timeout value with StartService method

I'm trying to start a service with StartService method. According to the documentation:
StartService will block for 30 seconds if any service is busy handling a control code.
How can I change this timeout value?
You cannot change the timeout. It is builtin to the SCM, and contractually obligated by the documentation to be 30 seconds only.
UPDATE: Apparently, you can change the timeout after all. But only in the Registry, not in code. And it requires a reboot to take effect. See How do I increase windows service startup timeout on Server Fault.
It is the responsibility of each service to respond to the SCM in a timely manner. During a start request, a service needs to call StartServiceCtrlDispatcher() as soon as possible. If it needs a lengthy startup, it should be starting the dispatcher quickly, then entering a PENDING state and report updated status at regular intervals until ready.

Do ColdFusion Scheduled Tasks have a built-in request timeout?

I have several scheduled tasks that essentially perform the same type of functionality:
Request JSON data from an external API
Parse the data
Save the data to a database
The "Timeout (in seconds)" field in the Scheduled Task form is empty for each task.
Each CFM template has the following line of code at the top of the page:
<cfscript>
setting requesttimeout=299;
</cfscript>
However, I consistently see the following entries in the scheduled.log file:
"Information","DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-8","04/24/19","12:23:00",,"Task
default - Data - Import triggered."
"Error","DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-8","04/24/19","12:24:00",,"The
request has exceeded the allowable time limit Tag: cfhttp "
Notice, there is only a 1-minute difference between the start of the task, and its timing out.
I know that, according to Charlie Arehart, the timeout error messages that are logged are usually not indicative of the actual cause/point of the timeout, and, in fact, I have run tests and confirmed that the CFHTTP calls generally run in a matter of 1-10 seconds.
Lastly, when I make the same request in a browser, it runs until the requesttimeout set in the CFM page is reached.
This leads me to believe that there is some "forced"/"built-in"/"unalterable" request timeout for Scheduled Tasks, or, that it is using the default timeout value for the server and/or application (which is set to 60 seconds for this server/application) yet, I cannot find this documented anywhere.
If this is the case, is it possible to scheduled a task in ColdFusion that runs longer than the forced request timeout?

Jetty HTTP/2: How to set client session timeout?

I'm trying to create one session and reuse it for every request.
The problem is if I try to send a request after 30 seconds after the session was createad, I get:
Caused by: java.nio.channels.ClosedChannelException
at org.eclipse.jetty.http2.HTTP2Session$ControlEntry.succeeded
(HTTP2Session.java:1224) ~[http2-common-9.4.0.v20161208.jar:9.4.0.v20161208]
I tried like this
SSLSessionContext clientSessionContext = sslContextFactory.getSslContext().getClientSessionContext();
clientSessionContext.setSessionTimeout(60000);
but it doesen't seems to work
If you are using HttpClient, the client idle timeout can be set with HttpClient.setIdleTimeout(long).
If you are using the low-level HTTP2Client, the client idle timeout can be set with HTTP2Client.setIdleTimeout(long).
Both will control the connection/session idle timeout, which is apparently what you want. A negative value will disable the idle timeout.

SSIS web service task timeout value

I am trying to call a long running web service from WebServiceTask in SSIS, but the TimeOut value for it seems to be a max of 300 seconds or 5 mins. But i am afraid that it might get timed out.
is there a way to increase the timeout vale
Unfortunately no. The Web Service Task, as I see it, is one of those "after thoughts." It satisfies a check box but doesn't go beyond the surface of functionality. I have found that I have a better web service experience if I just use a script component.
