not a php developer, need some ini file help

[lucidtech]

So I have a shared hosting account that I use Coldfusion for. Unfortunately my hosting company disables the cfexectute tag on shared hosting environments, and I'm trying to use ffmpeg to convert videos to flv on the fly. So, I built the upload and conversion script in php. It works great on my local server, and after a day of being lost I finally found out that to load a .ini file from my webroot on the shared host, I need to name it php5.ini and not php.ini That's the backstory, and I only tell it because I'm sort of flying blind and I have no idea what you'll need to know.

So, I did my research on the ini file and I'm somewhat familiar with php, so I upload the following as my .ini file, run phpinfo and the values that I've changed are shown, which is key. Here's the .ini file

post_max_size = 100M
upload_max_filesize = 100M
max_execution_time = 3000
error_log = "D:\Hosting\6540121\html\errorlog.txt"
expose_php = On
max_input_time = 3000
variables_order = "EGPCS"
extension_dir = ./
upload_tmp_dir = /tmp
precision = 12
memory_limit 300MB
extension_dir = "c:\php5\ext"
extension=php_mysql.dll

Granted, these are higher than the values I will need to use, I just set them high for testing. After this configuration I went from being able to upload a 3Meg video and convert it without a timeout to being able to do the same on an 8MB video. Problem is anything past that and I get a 500 error, one that my host tells me I can't get debug information on without writing an entire web.config file, and I'm not up for that at all. My question is, what is missing from this .ini file that may be causing the error. I've been working at this straight for two days (it took me 5 hours to realize why when I loaded this file I couldn't use mysql_query(), that's the extent of my knowledge.. I've since added the last two lines to that .ini file)

Please help me. I'm at such a loss, I'm so incredibly frustrated and I really don't want to have to upgrade to Virtual Dedicated hosting for $75 a month since I'm nowhere near needing that kind of hosting yet.

Thank you in advance to anyone who has a suggestion.

some thoughts:

1. when you want to do things like this, a VPS or dedicated host is better. rackspace offer dedicated vps via their US site for as little as 12$ a month. and you can close them down whenever you want to save money. i.e. they are fully on demand.

2. this line will not work

memory_limit 300MB

you need an equals sign.

3. make sure that the ini file also has the following during debugging

error_reporting = E_ALL
display_errors = true
display_startup_errors = true

sometimes it is the browser that times out and allots an error. are you getting the same error code in each browser? you might consider forking the process of handling the media transformation to a shell script and having that script notify you by email when it is complete.

does coldfusion not have a web stats logger that is accessible in your offering? if so, surely you can just download the logs and run them through a parser on your local machine.

Thank you for the tips. I've updated my ini file and am and had no luck... new settings were loaded when I checked phpinfo but the outcome was the same, just a 500 error and no log written, which makes me think iis is causing the timeout, not php.

On a different note, I found that by using cffile I can upload a 25M file with no timeout or problems, and have been able to convert that file via php after the upload is completed... I'll look into using a shell for this, considering having the server check a mailbox for completed conversions (emails sent from shell script) and adding the videos to the database after they are parsed.

After talking to my hosting company, support says they are unsure of how large of a file I can upload via a form if I go with virtual dedicated hosting, I'm supposed to just sign up and test it.

 

[lucidtech]

I set a page just for conversions using exec() and the page times out, but a short while there after the conversion finishes anyway. Should I be using system() for this, or would I be better off with the shell script that emails me when it's completed still?

 

[jpadie]

just to check, the memory_limit directive is set to 300M and not 300MB? the latter will not work

iis is causing the timeout, not php.

assuming that php is configured as a server module, they are one and the same.

they are unsure of how large of a file I can upload via a form if I go with virtual dedicated hosting

the limit is the amount of memory available to your server (real and paged).

all else being equal the likely culprit is the webserver time out, which php cannot control. IIS default timeout for cgi scripts is 300 seconds.

 

[lucidtech]

hosting told me I could upload my own web.config file, is there a standard file I could use to upload to my webroot that isn't going to screw things up? I just want to output debug information on a 500 error and possibly increase the allowable execution time of scripts.

 

[lucidtech]

also of note, I timed the page, it times out at 30 seconds exactly, which if I recall is the default setting for max_execution_time... if I couldn't change this setting it wouldn't be updated when I display phpinfo() would it?

 

[lucidtech]

and one final update before I turn in (its almost 6 am here) - I got IIS to output the error message, it states FastCGI exceeded its limit, which as far as I know, cannot be configured in the web.config file, correct? I'm running IIS7

 

[jpadie]

i'd also suggest turning off all forms of output buffering. perhaps

output_buffering = off;

and perhaps also an explicit flush in your script

ob_end_flush();

i think the 30 second timeout is likely to be a browser issue. the browser is polling for a 'keep alive' signal. if the web-server is still buffering output then it won't push any signal back.

you might also need to turn ob off in IIS. the setting is responseBufferLimit="0" . i have no idea how to do this on shared hosts. the alternative is to force a bunch of white space out that crashes the buffer.

 

[lucidtech]

jpadie, thanks for all the help so far. I set output_buffering = off in my ini file, check phpinfo() and that value went from 0 to no value, so that was set correctly.

I tried an ob_end_flush(); call at the end of my script, I still got the same FastCGI timeout.

I wouldn't blame you if you wanted to walk away from helping anymore with this. Worst case scenario, I know I can upload a 25 MB file and I can convert it... checking the server periodically until the conversion is completed (file size lists as 0 bytes until conversion finishes) since it throws an error after 30 seconds.

I feel like I'm so close but I have no idea how much longer this will take or even if I can pull it off on a shared hosting environment.

 

[jpadie]

can you post your phpinfo output?

i think you have to change the IIS settings too. if that is impossible and you can't use a decent server like apache, then my next solution would be to use a flash uploader. and i definitely think that moving the transcoding to a spawned process is the only sensible way forward.

 

[lucidtech]

do you have a link for creating a spawned process I can take a look at for reference?

also, is it possible to have the spawned process run another php script upon completion?

sorry - it's so straightforward that i know of no tutorial. you just fire off an exec call to php (as a CLI) with the relevant arguments and make sure that the output is piped to a file or to null.

so, is it possible to have the spawned process run another php script upon completion?

yes. in any of the normal ways.
