Hi @alexohneander,

It's not clear to me where the php.ini, which you are editing, exists? Is this inside the container?

The linuxserver container image exposes a php/php-local.ini file within the advised-mounted /config directory, for making local php config edits. Do you have such a file?

Yes, that's exactly what I edited. @ssddanbrown
/config/php/php-local.ini

Content:

; Edit this file to override php.ini directives and restart the container

date.timezone = 
upload_max_filesize = 500M
post_max_size = 500M
max_execution_timeout = 3000

Hi @alexohneander,
A few things:

The property is max_execution_time, not max_execution_timeout.
Are you restarting your container(s) after changing this?
Are you editing from within the container or via a file on the host that is being passed through as a volume?

Hi @ssddanbrown,
max_execution_time fixed it for me.

Thank you very much.
