My hoster can't change php.ini to set max_execution_time. Is it possible to do something. My installation stopps at the last page, because the server can't generate my site.
My hoster's max_execution_time is only 30.
What shell I do?

Well that's a little bit more complicated, but you need to set it up manually.

cat doc/INSTALL

But the real problem might be that this can happen also after you clear the cache.

If this also happens you should find a new hoster.

You can try increasing the max_execution_time in the main Exponential script, index.php.

Try adding a "set_time_limit(300);" as the second line before starting you instalation. e.g.

 
<?php
set_time_limit(300);
// Copyright (C) 1999-2004 eZ systems as. All rights reserved.
 

See http://au.php.net/manual/en/function.set-time-limit.php for more info on this function.

Note: This will not work if you are using php in safe_mode

try setting the max_execution_time in a .htaccess file in your root.

example:

php_value max_execution_time  60

Though this might not always work, depending on your hosters settings. Check with php info if the local value changed compared to the global.

Im on shared serverspace. This is, what I write in my .htaccess (in ezroot)

<FilesMatch "\.(php|html?)$">
php_value memory_limit 40M
</FilesMatch>

<FilesMatch "\.(php|html?)$">
php_value max_execution_time 60
</FilesMatch>

Hi,

Does your ISP let you to override global php settings ?

Case yes, have you check is your local php vars are already working ?

You can run a tiny php script to execute phpinfo() php function, it will show your php settings including

max_execution_time

actual value
