Answer 1

Solution to change set_time_limit() function in CodeIgniter.php is works, but I'm think it's not good idea to change framework's core files.

I'm found another decision, you can call set_time_limit() where you need and it will be overlapp setting of time limit in CodeIgniter.php.

Answer 2

Ok. I do this my self. I have contacted my teacher. There is a something that CodeIgniter not include this in their documentation.

At line 103 in system/core/CodeIgniter.php

if (function_exists("set_time_limit") == TRUE AND @ini_get("safe_mode") == 0)
{
    @set_time_limit(300);
}

I try to change the value and it works.

Answer 3

Codeigniter 2 has the set_time_limit function run with 300. After upgrading to Codeigniter 3, one thing started failing. After viewing this post, I realized that the set_time_limit call was removed in 3, so you may have to add the code in the accepted answer to your particular problem code. I would not recommend adding it back into the Codeigniter.php
