Updating error

  • hello guys,
    I’m using version 3.9.1 on my localhost and I got notified to update to version 4.0 but when I chose update I get this message:
    Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in E:\wampnew\wamp\www\wordpress-3.9.1\wordpress\wp-includes\class-http.php

    Any suggestions ?

    Maximum execution time exceeded:

    You may receive a message such as “Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded” or “Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded”. This means that it is taking to longer for a process to complete and it is timing out.

    There are a number of ways to fix this error.

    Editing .htaccess

    Make sure you back up .htaccess before you edit it.

    Add the following line to .htaccess:
    php_value max_execution_time 60

    Editing php.ini

    Add the following to php.ini
    max_execution_time = 60 ;

    If you are unsure of how to make these changes, or if you are on shared hosting that prevents you from making them yourself, you should contact your hosting provider and ask them to increase your maximum execution time.

    if you are not using permalinks its quite possible you don’t have an .htaccess file in your WordPress installation folder.

    In any event make sure your FTP program is set to display hidden files (those that start with a . filename.

    For more info review this codex: Where’s my .htaccess file?
