Java SE (Java Platform, Standard Edition)

I have rich client running in Java webstart(Java 1.60). It sends a http post request to a servlet(Jboss 4) and the servelt starts a long job. Once the job is completed, the results are passed back to the client side. I found there seems to be a timeout setting of 5 minutes. Once the job runs more than 5 minutes, the connection will be terminated. On the server side, it throws a broken pipe exception.

I wonder how I can solve this problem.

Thanks,

Bo
