Hi,  
Very new to Dolibarr and trying to upload Third parties and their properties.  
I have successfully uploaded a small User file with no problem, however I get a timeout error on the Third party file which is approx 1M.  
Can I increase the timeout? I have attached an image but not sure if it will render for you.

The error is: Fatal Error Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in C:\dollibarr\www\dolibarr\htdocs\core\lib\functions.lub.php on line 698

Any help appreciated.  
Tony Johnson

Check the php.ini file (on the main webserver) and see what the below settings are:

- Go to HOME \> Admin Tools \> About PHP
- Find upload\_max\_filesize, check the setting
- Find post\_max\_size, see what its set to  
Both of the above are generally set to the same, mine is 128M as i bumped in to a huge issue with WordPress and this setting, so i can upload 128Mb per file.

The above settings have to be set directly in the php.ini file on the webserver, its not done through Dolibarr
