note 30165 deleted from features.file-upload by peehaa

Note Submitter: ov at xs4all dot nl ---- This took me a few days to find out: when uploading large files with a slow connection to my WIN2K/IIS5/PHP4 server the POST form kept timing out at exactly 5 minutes. All PHP.INI settings were large enough to accomodate huge file uploads. Searched like hell with keywords like "file upload php timeout script" until I realised that I installed PHP as CGI and added that as a keyword. This was the solution: To set the timeout value: 1. In the Internet Information Services snap-in, select the computer icon and open its property sheets. 2. Under Master Properties, select WWW Service, and then click the Edit button 3. Click the Home Directory tab. 4. Click the Configuration button. 5. Click the Process Options tab, and then type the timeout period in the CGI Script Timeout box.
