AWS ec2 instance with php and mysql

Hi,

Increasing max execution time at PHP level won't solve your problem. Your current timeout comes from API Gateway: after 30s, it declares your PHP script unresponsive and returns a timeout to the user.

See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/limits.html

Maximum integration timeout 30 seconds No

So, your script must respond in less than 30s to avoid this timeout response.

If you can't reduce processing time, you have to change your implementation a bit: run the script in the first request, which return a request id. and then have additional poll requests (initiated by client) supplying the request id to check if completed.

Best,

Didier
