Why do I get an “Action could not be completed in allotted time” error message?
webMathematica produces this message when evaluations take a long time to complete. Evaluations are given an allotted amount of time to finish, after which webMathematica stops the evaluation.
- Run the evaluations in the Mathematica kernel to verify how long they take to complete. Long evaluations cause this message.
- Increase the allotted amount of time to finish the computation by using the KernelTimeLimit tag in the MSPConfiguration.xml file. The MSPConfiguration.xml file is located in the webapps/webMathematica/WEBINF directory in your Tomcat layout. Nest the KernelTimeLimit tag inside of the KernelPool tag. Inside the KernelTimeLimit tag, place the number of milliseconds to set the time-out. This time-out should be long enough for the kernel’s calculations to complete.
