[Resolved] max_execution_time to be 120 seconds

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
When using the Framework Installer an error was reported:

Framework Installer plugin requires PHP max_execution_time to be 120 seconds.

This occurred even though the server was set with this max execution limit.

Solution:
There was a bug in the installer that failed to handle the case when the ini_set function was disabled.

This will be fixed in the next update.

Hello
I changed the variables allow_url_fopen and max_execution_time with the values ON and 120 and it keeps saying "Framework Installer plugin requires PHP max_execution_time to be 120 seconds. Please change it in your php.ini. Contact your webhost if you are not sure how to do this. "

What I can do? I have also tried higher values and it does not work either

It means the settings are not met and the Server Admin should set them on the server side.

Can you contact your Server Administrator and ask to increase the values to see if this helps?

Because something seems wrong with the settings, while you state to have set 120 I see 300 for your server, which suggests that both, the detected value from our Debug Information and the value set by you is not applied.

Maybe the server admins can shed some light on this, in case not, please let me know!

There was confusion and the administrators put max_execution_time at 300.
Now it is at 120 and still does not work. (hidden link)

What do I have to do?

Hi there

Could we please get access to your site so that we can look at this more closely?

I'm marking your next reply as private, and will need admin and FTP credentials.

When I try to connect with FTP it says the directory is empty, there is nothing in the folder for me to look at, I'm not sure if that is a file permissions issue.

That works now, thanks.

I took a quick look at a couple of things, which seem to be okay, and I'm waiting for direction from the framework installer developer who is in an earlier timezone, so I will continue with this in the morning, and update you then.

Hello,

I found a bug in Framework Installer and will add a fix for this in the next release.

the problem is ini_set function disabled in your PHP config.
Added temporary fix on your server and tested random site. Everything works perfectly.
