Quote from Addenstera via mailboxCron will auto logout user after 30 minutes of inactivity. It doesn't logout it when he closed browser :)

Is that the case with you?

If not, is /usr/local/bin/php the correct path to your php?

Mine is simply /usr/bin/php.

How often is your cron running? Every minute like its recommended? If so does your host allow this?

Where i find the correct path "/usr/local/bin/php " ?

This is my cron

So when they close window after 30 minutes, does it keep them logged in?

When user close the page, after 30 minutes is logged out.

Sounds like normal operation.
Anyone know where the session timeout is stored and can we change it?

Not sure Michael i asked Addenster but he never replied to that ha. More than likely in the cron.php, functions or includes ..?

Yep sounds like normally operation to me.

I want to change it too because people can still chat to people that have already closed the browser.

Change timeout is not possible... Other solution?

Isn't one your script is doing exactly what it is programmed to do.

I am having a problem with the users staying logged in if they close their browser. I have checked the cron setup and am pretty sure it is set-up properly. I followed the instructions in the documentation area and received emails that cron was running, then I entered the command to stop the emails. Users were not logged out even a day later with any of these settings. Does any one have any other suggestions.

Does your host allow 1 min cron jobs? I know my host didnt even though i had email that it was running. But they had a min limit of 15 mins.

I checked with my hosting company and yes 1 min cron jobs are allowed. I have 5 users logged in some of them have been logged in for weeks now.

look for 

$action = ACTIVITY_BOL_Service::getInstance()->findLastOne('user-edit', $userId, $userId);
        if ( $action !== null )        {            $timeLimit = 60 * 30; // 30 minutes
            if ( time() - (int) $action->getTimestamp() >= $timeLimit )            {                $action = new ACTIVITY_BOL_Action();            }        }



in file home>ow_system_plugins>base>init.php

Best thing to do is to create a second development site and make the changes...  If it does work backup your site and make the change.

Do remember the next core update may overwrite your changes and you will have to re-edit the file so make a note of any custom work you do so you can reapply it.

Mark,

I checked my init file and the script that you mention is in fact there to the letter.

Thanks for trying though, I appreciate it.

David, did you try running Cron commands via SSH on your server? Did it give you any errors?

Thanks every one for all the help I finally got it working properly after changing the directory. my site is installed in a folder inside the public_html folder. I feel like such a fool after many hours trying figure out the problem. I had to change the command from /usr/local/bin/php /home/your-site-root-dir/public_html/ow_cron/run.php to /usr/local/bin/php /home/your-site-root-dir/public_html/home/ow_cron/run.php.
