timeout and DependencyInjection\Exception\RuntimeException when install new phpbb in xampp localhost

capherla · Post by **capherla** » Sat Dec 08, 2018 3:33 am

I got this error when install phpbb in xampp in my pc.

"The installer detected a timeout

The installer has detected a timeout, you may try to refresh the page, which may lead to data corruption. We suggest that you either increase your timeout settings or try to use the CLI."

I increased "Maximum amount of memory a script may consume" from 120M to
memory_limit=1280M
and "Maximum execution time of each script" from 30 to
max_execution_time=30000000

Then I run
php bin/phpbbcli.php in cmd
which is mentioned in https://area51.phpbb.com/docs/dev/3.2.x ... arted.html

Console shows

F:\xampp\htdocs\phpBB3>php bin/phpbbcli.php
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Exception\RuntimeExcept
ion: A string value must be composed of strings and/or numbers, but found parameter "cor

Please help. Thanks

Is this the same as your issue? viewtopic.php?t=2449261#p14880121 There are other cases on here if you search the error messages.

is there a document to instruct how to install with cli?

I've never used cli personally (not for phpBB anyway) but this seems quite thorough https://area51.phpbb.com/docs/dev/3.1.x ... arted.html

Note Paul's comment in the other topic:

You need to use the phpbbcli.php in the install/ directory.

There are other cases such as viewtopic.php?p=14896191 If you search 'install cli' via this board there are quite a few similar hits.

Out of curiosity - why are you trying to install phpBB on your local PC via CLI? You can have it installed in a couple of minutes by using the "normal" install method.

Because I got this error when using browser to install phpbb in xampp in my pc.

So if you are running it on you local PC then you just need to increase the runtime in your php.ini file.

A timeout during install? That's very peculiar. I've installed phpBB (many versions) locally, with many personal webservers and never had a timeout. Even with USBWebserver, the slowest of them all, never a timeout.

Try another server such as WAMP and see if that works.
