I'm using the following to display the max_execution_time of the servers PHP settings:
echo 'max_execution_time = ' . ini_get('max_execution_time') . '';
It returns the value as 0.
However, when I check phpinfo() it shows the value is 30.
Can anyone suggest why ini_get isn't returning the correct value? All other settings return the correct value.
Using php 5.3.28.
Many thanks.
The ini_get() function returns the value stored in the php.ini of a certain parameter.
The phpinfo() returns the current used values of all available parameters.
The max_execution_time parameter probably does not appear in your php.ini file, and thus the response of the ini_get() function will be 0, however this parameter is mandatory for php and have a default value of 30 seconds if not defined in the php.ini
