Hello All,

I am running the following versions: MediaWiki: 1.8.2 PHP: 5.1.6 (apache2handler) MySQL: 5.0.24a-Debian_9-log

I have anonymous edits disables, so users have to log in to edit the page.

includes/DefaultSettings.php $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createaccount'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['read'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['edit'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createpage'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createtalk'] = true;

The problem I am facing is that when you are editing a page and keep the session open for a long time without any activity, it will logout automatically and then when you try to save it, it will ask to login again, losing all the changes I had made.

The only way I could recover the changes is by hitting the browser back button and cut-pasting the changes.

Are there any settings that will disable this auto logout ?

I have some other wiki installations and I dont seem to have that problem there. Have I missed some setting here.

Thanks for your time.
