Question

I have a long running method which can take a minute. On my local, it’s OK, but on the server, I get a 504 response. I assume this means the page is timing out. Is it SessionState that I need to change in the web.config? I tried that but didn’t help.

What’s the property to increase page timeout?

Thank you.

This should solve your problem.
In the web.config put

<location path="somefile.aspx">
    <system.web>
            <httpRuntime executionTimeout="180"/>
    </system.web>
</location>
