From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Windows 2000 PHP version: 4.1.2 PHP Bug Type: Mail related Bug description: The specified CGI application exceeded the allowed time for processing.
I am trying to run a PHP script which sends ~1500 emails. It's a simple email script, in a look, calling the mail() function. mail($mailto, $subject, $body); Naturally the script times out after 30 seconds, and the error message "Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded" appears. I changed the script timeout to 10 minutes (600 secs) in PHP.INI but after ~3 minutes of the script running it times out again, this time reporting the error: "The specified CGI application exceeded the allowed time for processing." The script only manages to send ~700 emails out before the CGI timeout error message appeared, which stopped the process. Any way to stop this timing out? It seems max_execution_time in PHP.INI doesn't [completely] work.
