Alright, in that case I may be hitting something else. Ill try a few things and if I find something I will share my results.

Re: [phpxmlrpc] Long lasting calls
Thanks for your help. I meant is there anything in the server side of phpxmlrpc that would time out the request? (Outside of apache/php timeouts) Thanks On 8/31/10, Gaetano Giunta wrote: > Attila wrote: >> Hi, >> >> We are using the phpxmlrpc 2.2.2 package in our code. >> >> An issue we run into is very long lasting calls.

The problem is that there is a timeout somewhere. In the FAQ there is a section titled: How to enable long-lasting method calls Can you provide a quick pointer on how to prevent the library from timing out? Not really hard - it's just that are more than one place where a timeout is imposed: 1. use the timeout parameter in the send() method call [client side] 2. set the php script timeout limit: parameter max_execution_time in in php.ini (or via an ini_set() call if you cannot alter php.ini eg. on shared hosting) [both client and server] 3. make sure that the webserver serving the request does not time out in itself, e.g. the TimeOut directive for Apache might have an impact For debugging purposes: 1. use debug level 3 on the phpxmlrpc client 2. use a network sniffer such as Wireshark bye Gaetano ps: for such long-lasting methods, it might be better off to split processing in multiple xmlrpc calls: one that starts processing, gets back a token then a loop that every X seconds asks with the given token if results are ready server-side, the ignore_user_abort() php function could be used to make sure processing of the first call continues after sending the token response to the client Thank you, -A ___ phpxmlrpc mailing list phpxmlrpc@lists.usefulinc.com http://lists.usefulinc.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/phpxmlrpc ___ phpxmlrpc mailing list phpxmlrpc@lists.usefulinc.com http://lists.usefulinc.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/phpxmlrpc
