Weblogic Transaction Timeout : how to set in admin console in WebLogic AS 8.1

Question

I face the following exception:
weblogic.transaction.internal.TimedOutException: Transaction timed out after 300 seconds

this is set within the Stateless Session EJB Bean as javax.transaction.UserTransaction jtaTransaction.setTransactionTimeout(300) but I cannot figure out, where in the application console to set this property.

If you are not able to set timeout with console, see [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/17580412/1782379). — bsiamionau, Jul 11 '13 at 11:16

After logging in, on the home page of the Server Console you should see 3 sections:

Information and Resources
Domain Configurations
Services Configurations

Under Services Configurations there is subsection Other Services. Click the JTA Configuration link under Other Services. The transaction timeout should be the top setting on the page displayed, labelled Timeout Seconds.

Had the same problem, thanks mikej.

In WLS 10.3 this configuration can be found in Services > JTA menu, or if you click on the domain name (first item in the menu) - on the Configuration > JTA tabs.

In Weblogic 9.2 the configuration via console is as follows:

I believe the default value was 60. Remember to use Release Configuration button after you edit the field.

If you don't want to change the domain-wide default timeout, your best option is to change the deployment descriptor by setting the trans-timeout-seconds attribute in the weblogic-ejb-jar.xml - see http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11035_01/wls100/jta/trxejb.html

This overrides the "Timeout Seconds" default, only for this specific EJB, while leaving all other EJB unaffected.

The link above is rather outdated. For WebLogic 12c you may define the transaction timout in a transaction-descriptor for each EJB in the WebLogic deployment descriptor weblogic-ejb-jar.xml, see weblogic-ejb-jar.xml Deployment Descriptor Reference.

For a message driven been it looks like this:

<weblogic-enterprise-bean>
    <ejb-name>TestMessageBeanLow</ejb-name>
    <message-driven-descriptor>
        <pool>
            <max-beans-in-free-pool>1</max-beans-in-free-pool>
        </pool>
        <destination-jndi-name>jms/ActiveMQ/TestRequestQueue_LOW</destination-jndi-name>
        <connection-factory-jndi-name>jms/ActiveMQ/TestConnectionFactory</connection-factory-jndi-name>
    </message-driven-descriptor>
    <transaction-descriptor>
        <trans-timeout-seconds>60</trans-timeout-seconds>
    </transaction-descriptor>
    <resource-description>
        <res-ref-name>jms/ConnectionFactory</res-ref-name>
        <jndi-name>jms/ActiveMQ/TestConnectionFactory</jndi-name>
    </resource-description>
</weblogic-enterprise-bean>

Its possible at application level. Click on the EJB under the deployment(like Home > >Summary of Deployments >). Click on the Configuration tab and there is "Transaction Timeout:"

There is no such thing there ...it is session timeout – Cris Feb 05 '15 at 19:44
That option doesn't exist in WebLogic Server 10.3.6.0 – Sandoval0992 Jul 20 '18 at 19:14
