Internet Site configuration refresh timer

I am currently building a website for a customer and have been developing a small LotusScript API and a web service so they can manage redirection rules in the Domino Directory from the client site. The problem is that Domino isn’t picking up the configuration change even though it should do so after 20 minutes. And yes – we’re configuring HTTP through the “Internet Sites”-view.

The Domino Administration documentation is referring to a setting the server document that allows you to change this timeout value. Hmmm…. I can’t find it… I took a look at the design and there’s no field there.

Seems like a setting that has disappeared from a BETA to the Gold build.

The only thing I found on the subject was a post on Lotus developer domain (HTTP Server Config Refresh Interval).

Just opened a PMR with Lotus Support to hear from them…

UPDATE: I received an answer from Lotus Support. It appears that the notes.ini setting HTTPConfigRefreshTimeout will set the timeout.

HTTPConfigRefreshTimeout=# of minutes

After setting the notes.ini variable restart the HTTP task.

Caution is advised since using the notes.ini variable may lead the server to crash. Please refer to this search at Lotus Support for more information. So far it is running smoothly on my servers though.
