Apache timeout on Windows while debugging

Apache timeouts when debugging or back up with a plugin (more than 40-50 seconds)

Set a breakpoint and when hit you have 40 seconds until the servers closes the connection with 504 error.

System Details

  • Local Version: 10.0.0

  • Operating System (OS) and OS version: Windows

After an hour testing and guessing and the fact that it is not about apache timeout (TimeOut = 3600 doesn’t help) when discovered that php which do ob_flush() actually don’t die..

Here is the solution - add these to conf/apache/apache2.conf.hbs (some may be redundant but just in any case)

TimeOut 3600
ProxyTimeout 3600
FcgidIOTimeout 3600
FcgidBusyTimeout 3600

This will help anyone in these cases:

  • debugging and timeout
  • all sort of plugins like Duplicator for WordPress backups start to work without any problems.

Hope this will save some time of others with the same problem :wink:
