Opeing a socket. posting data and moving on

Problem

[ukgimp]

I have a script that opens a socket and posts some data and closes the socket. When trying to reactivate (loop) the script on the same page it fails due to a time out.

Are there any settings that I am unaware of?

Or suggestions?

Regards

there is a php.ini setting:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Resource Limits ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
max_execution_time = 30

which takes a value in seconds and can be increased.

failing that, you'd best save your values as session variables (or similar) and get the page reloaded after every successful execution, to start the timeout timer again.

[panic]

Try setting your max execution time as :

max_execution_time = 999999 ;

I think you'll get an error if you set it any higher.

-panic

Thanks both. I did extend the time and it worked. Glad to know the top time also.

Cheers
