AffiliStore - Time Out When Uploading 10meg Feed?

Hi I'm trying to upload a new feed to my site, and it's 10 meg. Everytime I try to do it Affilistore just times out and falls over.

Is this a restriction of affilistore?

Should I break the feed up?

Is there any time out settings?

Any other suggestions?

Cheers,

Joe

Try adding

php_value max_execution_time 60

to your .htaccess file

hi thanks for your reply. i added the line to my htaccess file and it looked like this:

DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php

php_value max_execution_time 60

i dont know if thats the right way to do it, but all my pages failed after adding the line

Cheers,

Joe

Hello Joe
Try adding a php.ini file to your root instead and add
upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 10M
max_execution_time = 60

Cheers I'm trying that out now.

I've put 15M instead of 10M because the feed is a lil over 10.

This has been mentioned on the affilistore forum.

The best short term solution is to break your upload into manageable mouthfulls.

if the timeout is PHP then add the below

php_value max_execution_time 0

what format is the feed file??

if you can , and affilistore supports them then try to use xml files as they are a lot faster than a text file and should cause as many problems
