I often get the message "The request has exceeded the allowable time limit Tag" when I run a page on my online CF server. The same page with the same data works fine on the local CF server.
The page actually fetch search results from google as well as yahoo for multiple keywords one by one. I think the problem is caused by some timeout. Because if fetches results for few keywords but then it gives this message. But it work fine on my local server with all keywords. This page will later be schedules so that it can run into 1-2 hrs at a stretch fetching results of more than 100 keywords.

Is there any settings do I need to do on my online CF server? Or some code is required to sort out this problem?

 
I've recently run into this problem as well. You can increase the time limit (or uncheck) "Timeout Requests after ( seconds )" under "settings" in the CF Admin and it seems to take care of it, but I wouldn't recommed doing this as it will apply to EVERY query in EVERY application running on that CF Server.

Hope This Helps!

you can add a string to the URL of ANY cfm page to extend this time for the page being loaded. Check the livedocs for the exact syntax, i forgot off hand. sounds like there is not much you can do to speed things up, as you are relying on outside proccessing to occur.
