Hi Dave,

Thank you for your answer. I tried it, but it unfortunately it did not
solve the problem.

This is what I added to my script:

ini_set('max_execution_time', 120);
set_time_limit(120);

But still ISE500....

I even changed the same parameters on the php.ini file, but still no luck.

What do else can it be, or how can i find out?
