Azure app services: Set max_execution_time in php settings

Jean BIEMEWOU 1

Hello.
I have a php script to import the data into the database. And I would like to import if possible 10000 lines. Except that I'm blocked by the timout because max_execution_time=300 in php.ini
So I did some research and among the solutions I tried the following:
1- <IfModule mod_php7.c> php_value max_execution_time 0 </IfModule> in .htaccess (pulic folder)

2- ini_set('max_execution_time', 0); in my controller (I use Laravel)

3- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/configure-language-php?pivots=platform-windows#customize-phpini-settings

4- I combined all these solutions

None of these ideas work.
Please, does anyone have an idea of what to do?

Thank in advance

Hi @Jean BIEMEWOU ,

I noticed you asked the same question over on stackoverflow and have received an answer. If modifying the .htaccess doesn't work for you, please let me know by commenting down below.

Hello @Ryan Hill

Indeed I modified the htaccess file but without success. And as indicated in the link of my previous message, I edited the .user.ini file at the root of my project but without success too.

Thanks!

Did you restart your app service after adding the .htaccess file? Upon updating, I can see that max_exectution_time was indeed updated using phpinfo.

Hello,

Sorry for the delay which is beyond my control.
Thank you already for this proposal.
Unfortunately as you can see on this image, it didn't work for me.
I remain open to any other proposal.
Thanks!

You're .htaccess file isn't in the root folder of your app. Move it to /home/site/wwwroot.

Hello,
I also did it, but the result remained the same.

@Ryan Hill and @Jean BIEMEWOU
Was any solution found for this issue? I am also facing the same problem. I have tried all the steps suggested above but they did not work.
