Mobile application getting error due to long time taking HTTP response

Hi Everybody,

I am working on a mobile native application in Blackberry WebWorks. My application runs on Tomcat 5.5 which fetches data from an ASMX webservice running on IIS 7.5.

I am getting a timeout after a period of 2 mins during data-fetching operation. I can not over come this problem please help me to overcome.

I am setting the ajax timeout and in the config file I have also mentioned the timeout, still I am getting the timeout.

After a long research I found out that the problem lies with the ASMX service call. In a particular ASMX service method, the method is taking on an average of 4 mins to respond with the result due to involvement of a huge calculation. As the HTTP response is not coming back for a long time the calling application is getting timeout, my ASMX webservice is working properly.

I tried everything with server.xml file of Tomcat 5.5, included all the properties possible to overcome this but with no result.

Please help me in this regard.
