To log into AdminCentral, go to:
-
Author instance -
http://localhost:8080/magnoliaAuthor/.magnolia/admincentral
-
Public instance -
http://localhost:8080/magnoliaPublic/.magnolia/admincentral
The generic form of the URL is
<port>/<contextPath>/.magnolia
. It may be different
on your system.
Session Timeout After user Inactivity
The session timeout defines the allowed time of inactivity after which the user must login again. The session timeout for the Magnolia AdminCentral is bound to the session timeout of the underlying servlet container.
For instance on a Tomcat server the session timeout is configured per
web application in the web.xml
and looks like this:
<session-config>
<session-timeout>30</session-timeout><!-- in minutes -->
</session-config>
