Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in class on line 733

Hi
I'm trying a clean install of G2 on a Windows 2000 machine running Apache 2.0.53
I've cranked up the max_execution_time values in php.ini am am still receiving the "Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in class on line 733" error. I guess the code is setting the max_execution_time to 30 seconds.. is there some way to change this?
I couldnt attach the install log ("Error attaching file install.log: invalid extension," same with the zipped version) so here are the apprently relevant bits:

Yep phpinfo shows the value as changed. Does the installer set max_execution_time somewhere? i guess it must do as the ability to change that value is one of the things it checks for...
cheers

no, not without a lot of manual steps.

the phpinfo file to confirm that must be in gallery2/install/phpinfo.php else it could show a wrong value.
we have some set_time_limit() calls in g2, which probably override your time limit.

you can't from outside.

i'd take a look at your install.log to find out where it times out. then add set_time_limit(30); calls right before it.

pr0fess0r: start from scratch. in system checks, make sure there are no warnings, in the database step, choose save, then erase.

refreshing / running the install core step multiple times doesn't fix it. you always have to run the database step and choose erase after a failed install core step. and if it doesn't redirect to a success page, don't refresh / retry, it won't fix it.

to find out where it dies / times out, do the above and then post the install log. then i can tell you where it dies.

please link to such long debug stuff and don't post it in the forums, thanks.

so it stops after exactly 30 seconds.
what apache timeout do you have? (that's a different timeout than the php timeout, set in your httpd.conf)

it times out right after:

$gallery->debug('Activate Matrix theme');
in modules/core/CoreModuleExtras.inc

you could add $gallery->guaranteeTimeLimit(120); right before it. maybe that helps.

i changed CoreModuleExtras.inc to not send activation events which will prevent loading all other modules in this step.
so starting from tomorrows nightly snapshot, G2 without any hacks should install on your server too.

I have seeing this same issue. I have the execution time set to 300 in php.ini but gallery is still buggin out @ 30sec. Where is this time limit value in the database?

Just a followup report, same problem here with G2.0.1 on a machine that had successfully installed all versions of G2 Beta and RC and G20.0.0. The difference is that I have done a total system reinstall and in the process upgraded Apache, PHP and MySQL

from
Apache 1.I.forget but fairly recent
PHP 4.recent
Mysql 3.23.recent

to

Apache 2.0.54,
MySQL 4.1.14,
PHP 5.0.5

I added the line suggested by valiant in the post of 2005-09-15 13:47 and the install went fine. Now running on my local machine with no problems.

All installs on Linux and Free BSD have gone fine, it's always just the Windows ones that seem to cause problems, but perhaps it's because of the machinery - 5 year-old box with Athlon Thunderbird 750MHz and all the Windows 2000 overhead in the background.
