URL / HTTP Test longer than 10 minutes

Would like the ability to increase the Timeout on a HTTP / Url test item to at least an hour. Currently, it is limited to 600 sec. We use HostMonitor in a closed intranet environment and some of our web scripts take longer than 10 minutes to run.

Thanks,
- Derek (using HM v6.80)

I am using RCC because I'm on a different machine. However, we resolved the issue. When we ran HostMonitor as a service, we were getting the error (which turned out to be a permissions issue).

1) You are using registered or evaluation version? 2) You are using local or network drive to store report files? 3) Could you check system log file (specified on Advanced Logs page in the Options dialog)? Any errors? 4) If you are using registered version and you do not see any errors in log file,...

"Generate Reports every..." seems to be flaky

We are having problems with HM routinely generating reports. In our setup, we have two folders under Root in HM with separate reports in each (using "folder's own report settings" option). We also have reports in the Root folder. For all of these reports, we have the option turned on to &q...

RE:

Just figured out how to get around this... at least on Windows. Instead of running the program directly, I created a batch file with the following: start C:\WINNT\NOTEPAD.EXE This opens Notepad on the local desktop. I can also use the "start" command's parameters to launch the program mini...

Is there a way to get around this?

Also, is this behavior documented somewhere?

Thanks,

RMA - External Programs not visible

I have recently been attempting to execute an external program visibly via RMA. I have tried the "by External program" test as well as the "Execute External program" action. Either way, the same problem occurs. Anytime the RMA launches an external program, it runs in the backgrou...
