Thread:Project:Support desk/Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded in Database.php/reply

Hi!

Bitness is downwards compatible, so 32 bit software generally runs fine on a 64 bit OS.

I have not tested that myself, but it might be that your MediaWiki version is too old to run properly on PHP 5.3. As a workaround for the "Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded" error you can set a higher value for max_execution_time in php.ini. Restart your webserver afterwards for your changes to take effect.

Is MediaWiki - apart from that the max_execution_time is too low - working correctly?
