Hello Everyone,

I am a beginner to Gatling. I am trying to edit the default values for request timeout on the gatling.conf file in my maven project but the changes are not taking place.

Gatling version used - 3.3.0

I have a Get Request where I need to wait for more than the default 60 seconds to capture the performance times.  
scn.inject (atonceusers(10)  
).protocols(httpProtocol)

```auto
. Please advise. 

```

Thanks for your reply,  
I uncommented below on the gatling.conf as below -

ahc {  
connectTimeout = 300000  
handshakeTimeout = 300000  
requestTimeout = 300000  
}

data is setup in a csv file  
simulation -  
scn.inject(atOnceUsers(10))  
}.protocols(httpConf)

the requirement is to wait until 5 mins before timing out. Even after making the changes to gatling.conf the script ends at 1 min. am I missing something?, please let me know.

Thanks,
