I've got a form on my server (PHP) that uploads files, and it generally works, but it's timing out at 30 seconds on a 2.16MB file. <form name="importForm" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="importDocument.php" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000000" /> <input type="file" name="file" size=70 /><br/> My relevant settings are as follows: upload_max_filesize 8M post_max_size 8M max_execution_time 240 max_input_time 240 $_FILES['file']['error'] return 2 What am I missing? Why would it be timing out? Thanks, Dave Here's all of phpInfo for reference: Code: PHP Version 5.2.5 System Linux server.xxxx.com 2.6.9-55.0.12.EL #1 Fri Nov 2 10:57:39 EDT 2007 i686 Build Date Nov 25 2008 11:05:42 Configure Command './configure' '--build=i686-redhat-linux-gnu' '--host=i686-redhat-linux-gnu' '--target=i386-redhat-linux-gnu' '--prefix=/www/php' '--with-config-file-path=/www/php' '--enable-inline-optimization' '--with-bz2' '--with-curl' '--with-openssl' '--enable-soap' '--with-pspell' '--with-xmlrpc=shared' '--with-zlib' '--with-layout=GNU' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-exif' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--enable-wddx' '--with-pear' '--with-kerberos' '--with-ldap=shared' '--with-pgsql=shared' '--with-snmp=shared' '--enable-ucd-snmp-hack' '--with-unixODBC=shared,/usr' '--enable-shmop' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-mbstring' '--enable-mbregex' '--with-mime-magic=/usr/share/file/magic.mime' '--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql' '--with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config' '--with-mcrypt' '--with-apxs2=/www/bin/apxs' '--with-gd' Server API Apache 2.0 Handler Virtual Directory Support disabled Configuration File (php.ini) Path /www/php Loaded Configuration File /www/php/php.ini PHP API 20041225 PHP Extension 20060613 Zend Extension 220060519 Debug Build no Thread Safety disabled Zend Memory Manager enabled IPv6 Support enabled Registered PHP Streams php, file, data, http, ftp, compress.bzip2, compress.zlib, https, ftps Registered Stream Socket Transports tcp, udp, unix, udg, ssl, sslv3, sslv2, tls Registered Stream Filters string.rot13, string.toupper, string.tolower, string.strip_tags, convert.*, consumed, convert.iconv.*, bzip2.*, zlib.* Zend logo This program makes use of the Zend Scripting Language Engine: Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2007 Zend Technologies PHP Credits Configuration PHP Core Directive Local Value Master Value allow_call_time_pass_reference Off Off allow_url_fopen On On allow_url_include Off Off always_populate_raw_post_data Off Off arg_separator.input & & arg_separator.output & & asp_tags Off Off auto_append_file no value no value auto_globals_jit On On auto_prepend_file no value no value browscap no value no value default_charset no value no value default_mimetype text/html text/html define_syslog_variables Off Off disable_classes no value no value disable_functions no value no value display_errors Off Off display_startup_errors Off Off doc_root no value no value docref_ext no value no value docref_root no value no value enable_dl On On error_append_string no value no value error_log no value no value error_prepend_string no value no value error_reporting 6143 6143 expose_php On On extension_dir ./ ./ file_uploads On On highlight.bg #FFFFFF #FFFFFF highlight.comment #FF8000 #FF8000 highlight.default #0000BB #0000BB highlight.html #000000 #000000 highlight.keyword #007700 #007700 highlight.string #DD0000 #DD0000 html_errors On On ignore_repeated_errors Off Off ignore_repeated_source Off Off ignore_user_abort Off Off implicit_flush Off Off include_path /www/phpIncludes:/www/php/share/pear:/www/phpIncludes/smarty/libs /www/phpIncludes:/www/php/share/pear:/www/phpIncludes/smarty/libs log_errors On On log_errors_max_len 1024 1024 magic_quotes_gpc Off Off magic_quotes_runtime Off Off magic_quotes_sybase Off Off mail.force_extra_parameters no value no value max_execution_time 240 240 max_input_nesting_level 64 64 max_input_time 240 240 memory_limit 128M 128M open_basedir no value no value output_buffering 4096 4096 output_handler no value no value post_max_size 8M 8M precision 14 14 realpath_cache_size 16K 16K realpath_cache_ttl 120 120 register_argc_argv Off Off register_globals Off Off register_long_arrays Off Off report_memleaks On On report_zend_debug On On safe_mode Off Off safe_mode_exec_dir no value no value safe_mode_gid Off Off safe_mode_include_dir no value no value sendmail_from no value no value sendmail_path /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i serialize_precision 100 100 short_open_tag Off Off SMTP localhost localhost smtp_port 25 25 sql.safe_mode Off Off track_errors Off Off unserialize_callback_func no value no value upload_max_filesize 8M 8M upload_tmp_dir no value no value user_dir no value no value variables_order GPCS GPCS xmlrpc_error_number 0 0 xmlrpc_errors Off Off y2k_compliance On On zend.ze1_compatibility_mode Off Off apache2handler Apache Version Apache/2.2.6 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.6 OpenSSL/0.9.7a DAV/2 PHP/5.2.5 SVN/1.5.6 Apache API Version 20051115 Server Administrator [email][email protected][/email] Hostname:Port xxxx.com:0 User/Group daemon(2)/2 Max Requests Per Child: 10000 -
