hi guys,
i was wondering how you deal with script timeouts caused by huge file
uploads. Lets say I have a script timeout of 2 minutes and the user
uploads a file which takes more than this ...
Whats the best way to inform the user about this issue rather than
throwing the script timeout error.
What approaches do you use for this....

Ummmm ... increase the script timeout on the page that does the upload?
Search www.aspfaq.com for "timeout"

ya i know that i could increase the script timeout but this seems not
a solution to me. because if i increase it to lets say 20 minutes and
then someone comes with an even bigger file (or slow connection) which
takes longer to upload then i have the same problem. and i am thrown
back to the start in increasing it again and again ...
i checkd aspfaq but they have no approaches for this problem.
do you have any other ideas?
Q - I have to drive my car 100 miles, but I keep running out of gas because
I only keep up to 3 gallons of gas in my car, which gets 20 mpg. What can I
do?
A - Put 5 gallons of gas in your car.
Q - That won't work. What if I have to drive 120 miles some other time, or
140 miles? I'd have to keep putting more gas in the car.
A - Sell your car and ride the bus.

What's the maximum amount of time you are willing to put up with a user
trying to upload a file into your asp page?
Set your script timeout to that.
yeah i know i can do this... so there is no real approach to tell the
user about the error?
oh i think i could catch all errors and check if the timeout error
happend. if this is the case i show a user friendly message...

Hi,
I need to capture the Script timeout error if that is possible. I know I can

but I really want to make sure that no timeout situation will results as the

I've been researching this issue with little luck. Here's the situation:
We have a few users on slow dialup connections who are posting data from
forms. Frequently, they get script timeout errors. We've gotten timeouts
from users with faster connections as well, so I suspected that the overall
load is overtaxing the server. But it does seem to be more frequent with
dialup users posting relatively large (>10K) worth of data from forms....

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 3600 seconds exceeded in z:\home

php.ini setting fixes default max execution time at 30 sec,
In the script itself I have set_time_limit(0);
I have also tried set_time_limit(90000); with no luck.
Checked if php was running in safe mode, and it wasn't.
Are there any other reasons that can cause this behavior?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
