How do I prevent server timeouts on Lite Speed?

(The article below is specifically for customers running on Lite Speed.  For general information about Threadloom and timeouts, view this article.)

If you are running Lite Speed, you can set a longer timeout in WebAdmin CP > Configuration > Server > Tuning > Connection Timeout (secs).

If you prefer to set the connection timeout specifically for Threadloom, the following approach has been tested and confirmed: 

Update the .htaccess files in the following 3 locations:

/<path to forum home folder>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule deferred.php - [E=noabort:1, E=noconntimeout:1]

/<path to forum home folder>/library/Threadloom

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule Sync.php - [E=noabort:1, E=noconntimeout:1]

/<path to forum home folder>/library/Threadloom/common

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule Syncer.php - [E=noabort:1, E=noconntimeout:1]

Note: On servers with very limited resources, it is possible that making these .htaccess changes may impact server load/capacity.  Drop us a line if you want to chat about it first.
