#23628 [Bgs]: max_execution_time documentation wrong?

ID: 23628 Updated by: philip@php.net Reported By: pekka at studio-on-the dot net Status: Bogus Bug Type: PHP options/info functions PHP Version: 4.3.2RC2 New Comment: Also this has been added to the list of things affected by safe_mode and will show up during the next manual build. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-14 07:55:02] derick@php.net Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. http://ch.php.net/manual/en/ref.info.php#ini.max-execution-time has a link to: http://ch.php.net/manual/en/function.set-time-limit.php which explains: set_time_limit() has no effect when PHP is running in safe mode. There is no workaround other than turning off safe mode or changing the time limit in the php.ini. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-14 07:37:24] pekka at studio-on-the dot net ini_set (max_execution_time,"3600"); does not work in safe mode. Is documentation wrong? I must strongly disagree if you have made changing maximum execution time harder or impossible to virtual servers clients. I have tried hard writing apps with full compability with safe mode because that is what most virtual server providers offer (and they of course refuse to change php.ini for clients' needs). Try doing e.g. PhpMyAdmin dump in 30 seconds... and that app is bundled with most servers in the world. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23628&edit=1
