SAS® Studio 2025.6 and later time-out settings


The time-out settings changed slightly starting in SAS Studio 2025.06.

In the 2025.06 version, the SAS Studio timeout settings have no effect. This behavior is the same for the previously released versions of SAS® Studio 2025.07 and SAS® Studio 2025.08.

Since the publication of this SAS KB article, however, the issue has been corrected for versions 2025.07, 2025.08, and later.

Once you obtain an updated version of SAS Studio (as noted above), modify the following settings to change the time-out interval:

  1. Log on to SAS® Environment Manager with an Administrator account.
  2. Navigate to Configuration ► Change the drop-down list to server ►select server.
  3. Select New Configuration. (Note: This option is displayed only if the settings are not already in place from step four).
  4. Add the following configurations with their appropriate values (Note: All time values are in seconds. For example, for a one-hour time-out, the setting would be 3600. For a four-hour time-out, the setting would be 14400.):
    • http.session.maxAge
    • servlet.session.timeout
  5. Once you save these changes, you need to restart the environment. Either reboot the environment or submit the following stop and start commands:
    • kubectl create job sas-stop-all-`date +%s` --from cronjobs/sas-stop-all -n <namespace>
    • kubectl create job sas-start-all-`date +%s` --from cronjobs/sas-start-all -n <namespace>
