The issue you are facing:
When logging into Nextcloud on the web interface, the server never logs out the user automatically after any period of time. Is there a way to fix this so that if I a user is inactive on the web interface the systems logs out them out after 30 minutes of inactivity?
I searched in the forums and added a few lines to the config.php file in /var/xxx/nextcloud/config, but I am not getting any positive results. I am obviously doing something wrong. These are the lines I added:
‘remember_login_cookie_lifetime’ => 1296000,
‘session_lifetime’ => 43200,
‘session_keepalive’ => false,
‘auto_logout’ => false,
What am I doing wrong? How do I fix the problem? Thanks!
Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Y/N): N
Steps to replicate it:
- Login as either admin or user to Nexcloud web interface
- Remain inactive for any period of time
- Open web address of web interface after being inactive and instead of login page you are directed to user’s logged interface
