Php set_time_limit not working with mod_fcgid

mod-fcgidPHPtimeout

It seems set_time_limit function call has no effect when php is running with mod_fcgid (the default in webmin). Can someone tell me how to make it work?

Make sure you're editing /etc/php5/cgi/php.ini and that after editing it, you restart php-cgi. The command for that should be sudo /etc/init.d/php-fastcgi restart

Edit:

To increase timelimit, you'll need to find max_execution_time in your php.ini. Default value is 30 seconds. This is required if PHP is running in safe mode.

To disable safe mode, search for safe_mode in php.ini and set it to off.

See PHP Runtime Configuration page for more info on that.

Ubuntu – PHP mail() not working with Postfix on Ubuntu

Oh, I fixed the problem by following the information in this forum:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=666018

Basically, I looked in my /var/log/mail.log error file and found the error message "unable to look up public/pickup: no such file or directory".

I then issued the command

sudo mkfifo /var/spool/postfix/public/pickup

I made sure sendmail wasn't still running by doing a ps -aux and killing it

root@cpu:/var/log# ps aux | grep mail
root      2363  0.0  0.5   9228  1888 ?        Ss   Jan28   0:20 sendmail: MTA: accepting connections          
root     23914  0.0  0.2   3040   792 pts/0    S+   11:33   0:00 grep mail
root@cpu:/var/log# kill 2363

I restarted postfix

sudo /etc/init.d/postfix restart

And now the PHP mail function works.

Error logging with PHP and mod_fcgid

The solution was to change the debug settings in the apache config from "warn" to "debug". Now apache outputs helpful error messages from PHP.
