Please post the the api.log file from the server (from csweb/var/logs directory) and also check to see if your server has a php error log and post any errors from there.

I see a lot of errors about max_execution_time. Try increasing the limit in php.ini https://www.php.net/manual/en/info.conf ... ution-time

It may just be the very large number of cases. I don't think we have ever tested upload with that much data. Will try to create a large test file to see if we can reproduce next week. I would recommend sticking to the older CSWeb for this survey and start with the newer one when a start a new survey and don't need to transfer the data.

Dear Josh;

Thank you for your prompt reply.

I want to share my experience with CSWeb 7.1.0.

A year ago we did a survey with CSWeb 7.1.0. At the End of the survey, I made one copy in SQL and one copy with data viewer in csdb format. Total cases 560,387. Due to error in the server, I installed WAMP Server with CSWeb7.1.0 and uploaded the csdb data through desktop. It worked.

Thanks.

We made some changes since CSPro 7.1 to speed up the upload/download of cases that allows DataViewer to send larger numbers of cases in a single request. It is possible that this is overloading the server in your case. Previously DataViewer would send only 100 cases at a time, now it continues to double the number of cases in each subsequent request unless the server returns an error. The idea is that after the error it should go back to a smaller number of cases but maybe that isn't working with your server for some reason.

Arshad,

Looking at the logs, it does seem like this may be a time out issue. After you changed the max_execution_time did you restart apache? You can create a test script with calling phpinfo() to check if your max_execution_time changes are in effect.
https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.phpinfo.php
Also, clear the var/cache folder contents in CSWeb before restarting apache.
