It is on a shared server, max_exec_time is 3000, ie 30 seconds, which yes is
probably being exceeded. However, having set the CURL_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT
thingy it worked a lot better, and the page kept working long after 30
seconds had expired, leaving me with the question: what does
max_execution_time relate to? is it more like a maximum time without
activity.
I still get processes not finishing and accumulating on the server for
several hours, and wonder is it that if the script is terminated by some
other function like max_exec_time that the curl_close() does not get called
in the script and the process remains. Do I need to run another script on a
different cronjob to terminate such processes?
