Trying to store my HttpSession using Redis in Spring Boot. All guides mention session timeout properties - like spring.session.timeout - and previously I used to define timeout in web.xml. Can't figure\find out the difference between those two.

When I comment out timeout in web.xml and use property - for example 1 minute timeout - it is not being 1 minute after deploy. Are those two ways connected somehow? Or those are completely different things?

UPD 1: Also I am using @EnableRedisHttpSession with no args, if that affects it

How do you deploy the app? As JAR or WAR? – Simon Martinelli Jan 05 '23 at 12:50
@SimonMartinelli, I am deploying it as WAR on tomcat – Collapser Jan 05 '23 at 13:13
I think you must set server.servlet.session.timeout – Simon Martinelli Jan 05 '23 at 13:14
@SimonMartinelli, I changed the property and cleaned/re-deployed war -> my property set 1m session did not expired after that time, so it did not helped. Thank you anyway) – Collapser Jan 05 '23 at 13:41
Please provide enough code so others can better understand or reproduce the problem. – Community Jan 05 '23 at 15:44
