    Has anyone ever had the following problem occur?

    On one of my sites, when I try to update any plugin, I get an internal server error, and the site goes into maintenance mode, and I'm unable to get out of it unless I go into the file system and delete the maintenance file. I have debugging turned on, but nothing is coming up.

    There are two related error log messages I keep seeing:

    [05-Dec-2016 17:35:53 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in url.com/wp-content/plugins/bette... on line 524

    [29-Nov-2016 19:47:18 UTC] PHP Warning: An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this server&#8217;s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/">support forums</a>. (WordPress could not establish a secure connection to WordPress.org. Please contact your server administrator.) in url.com/wp-includes/update.php on line 306

    I can't figure out how to get these plugins to update. Any ideas?

    • Have you tried (temporarily) turning off iThemes Security, and seeing if the problem still occurs?Nathan_Adams
    • Tried that, didn't work. Did a little looking around and updating execution timeout in php.ini did the trick.mg33
    • Host has been screwing up lately, server issues. Got to be the case and needed more time for updates to process I guess.mg33
    • it's a common issue, unfortunately there are some factors what affect the update run time, and the most common error is that the php exectimeout is to low (30s)
