Re: [PHP] Run a script for 20minutes

2001-02-12 Thread Ankur Verma

you can set the maximum execution timeu using either the

max_execution_time = 30 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in
seconds

setting in php.ini

or can set it at runtime for a script using  the set_time_limit() function

check the php manual for more details.

hope that helps

If you don't want to run the script from the command line you can use
ignore_user_abort with set_time_limit(?) in the script to allow you to close
the browser and let it do its thing.

Maybe you shouldn't run your script through the browser. To me it sounds
like you're doing a one-time process that dosen't really send any output
back to the browser. Instead it saves all the generates html-files on disk,
right?

Try running:

php.exe 

or

php.exe /q 

to avoid the standard php-headers

Re: [PHP] Run a script for 20minutes

2001-02-12 Thread Andy Woolley

Something doesn't seem right here.

I've executed scripts that have taken 4 hours to complete in the past and
the only thing I had to set was:

set_time_limit(0);

Are you echoing anything to the screen, if not maybe you should after every
loop increment, you may also need to use the flush() command.

Hope this helps.

RE: [PHP] Run a script for 20minutes

2001-02-12 Thread Martin E. Koss

I'm using a mySQL database but to be honest I think the only thing that was
timing out was the browser, since hacking the registry to eliminate that
timeout the only thing I can do is wonder why it only finishes half what it
is supposed to do.

I'll try it on a faster machine later - it's on a AMD K6-2/366 with 128mb
ram. I have a Athlon 900 that I could run it on but that's not a machine I
want to tinker too much with - will go for a trusty old 450 first.

Is it a surprise that it might take up to 20 or 30 minutes to build over
20,000 simple HTML files?

Martin.

I think there are timeouts on php as well:

This is taken from the php.ini file.

max_execution_time = 30 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in
seconds

I hope this helps you, you can find php.ini in your windows directory.

If you are using a database, also check that for timeouts.

Hi,
I have PHP3 and MySQL on Win98 and am trying to run a script that loops
through a file making process and it needs about 20 - 30 minutes to run. It
generates static HTML files based on content in a database. I've increased
Internet Explorer's timeout to allow for this but for some reason only about
half the processing is done before everything seems to just stop.

Does anyone know of a very basic way of executing a PHP script on a Win98
machine without the need for a browser? Or, another way of running this
script that will take some time and create some 22,000 files through the
process.

Thanks,

Martin.
