How to Re-calibrate PHP Performance Values

To support high-traffic applications, you often need to increase PHP limits. Follow this manual to modify the php.ini configuration globally for a specific version.

Step 1: Select Your Target Version

In the PHP Settings ledger, click the "Configure" (Gear) Icon next to the PHP version you wish to edit.

Step 2: Modifying Common Parameters

Use the Neural Config Form to update these critical values:

  • upload_max_filesize: Increase this to allow larger file uploads (e.g., 128M).
  • memory_limit: Define how much RAM each PHP script can consume (e.g., 256M or 512M).
  • max_execution_time: Set the timeout for long-running scripts (e.g., 300 seconds).

Step 3: Direct File Editing (Expert Mode)

For parameters not found in the form, click "Edit Config File". This launches the integrated IDE, allowing you to edit the raw php.ini file. Click "Save & Sync" to apply the changes.

MANUAL NOTE: After saving, BoostonCP automatically reloads the PHP-FPM service to ensure the new values take effect without interrupting active visitor sessions.
