I read this post and it’s related and very good, but it’s not quite what my situation is
I’m on a shared host with a limit of 1GB of ram.
Every time I start the upgrade wizard (but only after about 7.10) it puts my cpu usage at 100% and everything stops and i get a 508 error.
Then I have to go into cache/upgrades and delete the stuff in there and after I can get back into the upgrade wizard.
I have tried, I think, pretty much everything and the only two solutions are:
Upgrade my hosting plan to more ram or
somehow impose a limit onto SuiteCRM so that when it does stuff it does not reach the CPU limit.
I was hoping someone could instruct me about a way to impose this limit. I don’t mind if the task takes 3 times as long because I don’t need that much speed and ram for our small usage.
I found this post as well and this seems to be exactly what i’m looking to do. However, this poster doesn’t give detailed instructions about which directory to create this new file. Also the post is 4 years old so I’m concerned maybe it’s not relevant anymore. I am getting desperate and may just stick it in the main directory of the suitecrm install and see what happens.
Any comments on this would be great because surely I"m not the only one running out of RAM on a shared host with suite crm?
This is what I have in my public_html dir for php.ini
Although it’s kind of ‘over’ now for me (see my other thread for fun and learning) I would like to make sure I’m set up correctly for the next SCRM upgrade.
What do you think of this setup here? Do you think these limits would have caused my pain? And if so, what would you set for these to get the job done but not lock my shared hosting account down?
; Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.
post_max_size = 32M
=================
I wonder if this might have been the cause of my original pain?
Doh! You might be right here. Mine is set to 32M, but I’m looking at the SuiteCRM-Upgrade-7.8.x-to-7.11.1.zip file and it is 32.6M … that … really sucks if that was the problem. HA
I hope someone else reading this on a shared hosts checks these first… my road was a painful road travelled…
