Maximum Execution time increased to 1500 seconds – still get 5 minute error

  • Hi
    I tried the suggestions for “WARNING: Job restarts due to inactivity for more than 5 minutes. WARNING: Job restarts due to inactivity for more than 5 minutes.” However, I hit a problem.

    I couldn’t change maximum execution time under settings – all I could change was Maximum script execution time, which was set to 30 seconds, and I changed to 0 (meaning no limit). However, I found the Maximum Execution Time variable in my PHP.ini file and increased it to 1500 seconds. It was set to 300 seconds.

    However, I get the same error message:

    I’m out of my knowledge now in terms of how to fix this – hopefully you can help.

    Many Thanks

  • Not sure that this will help you, but it helped me so here it is! When I was having this issue I reset the Maximum script execution time to 25 seconds, and that cleared things up.

    I gave up – no official reply in over 6 days- I now use WP Snapshot which is much easier and works straight out of the box
