[Resolved] Socket Timeout being ignored

Hmm... this is strange.

I'm using the latest nightly build of soapUI and have set the Socket Timeout property in the soapUI Preference dialog to a large number such as 100000 (100 sec). Then I created a simple MockService and in the script tab on the MockResponse added

while(true){}

. this will basically make the MockService take forever to respond. Then I called the MockService and soapUI did indeed wait for 100 seconds before timing out.

Could you try to replicate what I've done and see if you get the same results?
Could it be anything between soapUI and your server that may cause the timeout, such as a proxy?
