Maximum time allowed to complete authentication has been exceeded

Question

I am using DotNetOpenAuth to authenticate an app on Windows Azure. From time to time, the system is slow, and I end up with the following error message

Login failed: The maximum time allowed to complete authentication has been exceeded. Please try again.

Any suggestion how to increase this timeout?

Modify your .config file to change this line:

<openid maxAuthenticationTime="0:05">

Note for other folks: IF this keeps happening, it can also be to do with the ASP.NET cache flushing, on development machines this is quite possible.

Can verify this with

<caching> <cache disableMemoryCollection = "true" disableExpiration = "false" privateBytesLimit = "0" percentagePhysicalMemoryUsedLimit = "90" privateBytesPollTime = "00:02:00"/> </caching>
