session timeout

[kampa]

Hi
I need your help.
Where do I configure session timeout in a jboss2.4.6?
JBoss would not let me do it in web.xml file like:
<session-config>
<session-timeout>60</session-timeout>
</session-config>.
Got the error:
[ERROR,Engine] ContextConfig[/ssapp] Parse error in application web.xml
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Element "web-app" does not allow "session-config" here.

Check the DTD and make sure you've added your session configuration in the correct place in web.xml. Notice that the order of elements is significant in correctly formed XML documents.

unable to make out where to set session timeout property..there are so many web.xml files in jboss-3.2.2..I am confused!!
Please tell the path at which web.xml should be modified for session time out

shilps, you will have to add the session timeout entry in the web.xml belonging to your application.

But at what path..we are deploying adobe form server through jboss3.2.2..i checked timeout property..but there are so many web.xml like at:
\\192.168.11.40\c$\jboss-3.2.2\server\all\conf

\\192.168.11.40\c$\jboss-3.2.2\server\default\deploy\jbossweb-tomcat41.sar

\\192.168.11.40\c$\jboss-3.2.2\server\all\deploy\jmx-console.war\WEB-INF
