[how to set time out for a logn running scheduled report job in jasper server]

i have few report jobs scheduled in the jasper server. some how few jobs are running for a very log time. i want to set the time out value for the long running job so it gets terminated.

if there are too many long running jobs are in process, is that effects the performace of the server?

[direct url access to the reports ,by pass authentication]

after finding many posts related to direct url access to the reports,i did following changes

edit 1. in my jasper server i have a report job which runs only once up on request and saves the out put files either in format pdf/xl  in  folder reports/ScheduledReports. i changed the permission on the folder. for ROLE_ANONYMOUS  i have give read only permission.

edit 2. as mentioned in many posting i tried to change property value in the bean filterInvocationInterceptor  of applicationContext-Security.xml file. But in jasper server 4.00 i dont find the 'filterInvocationInterceptor' bean in applicationcontext-security.xml. i was able to  find this in the file applicationContext-security-web.xml under C:\Program Files (x86)\jasperreports-server-4.0\apache-tomcat\webapps\jasperserver-pro\WEB-INF directory

i changed the /fileview/** = ROLE_ANONYMOU,ROLE_USR,ROLE_ADMINISTRATOR  and moved this to top of the list

after doing above two changes i restarted the tomcat server and tried to access the report, but i am getting the null pointer exction like http status 500 null pointer exception

 the url i used-- http://jasperserver4332:8080/jasperserver/fileview/fileview/reports/Scheduled_Reports/CustomerReport-109043.pdf

attached is the complete error message

could any body tell what should i do to solve this issue.
