XF 2.2 Importing language leaves unfinished jobs

[nocte]

Most times I import a language pack, the process finish on some point and leaves a lot of work as unfinished job(s).

I have to visit admin.php?tools/run-job in order to make that done.

I have a similar behavior when I delete a user with renaming: Sometimes (especially when dealing with accounts with much activity), this leaves unfinished jobs.

No errors (not displayed during/after execution nor in server error log).

Big board, many addons, server cluster.

Your browser error console say what ?

good question. Unfortunately it does not say anything (new) during the import overlay is displayed. After that the site admin.php?languages/ seems to reload and leaves me with unfinished jobs.

Most likely a server resources/config issue.

Try reducing the run time via config.php: config['jobMaxRunTime'] = 6; .

Or tune the server/increase the resources.

o.k. good point. Currently we have $config['jobMaxRunTime'] = 60; and use server crons (not activity based crons). There's a lot of things happing in the background (big board). Maybe I'll try 30 seconds first.

Yeah, that's a long run time.

I don't think I've ever seen it that high.

The default is 8.

Yeah, I think that was the issue. User deletion with renaming works now without issues and I assume importing languages will do so as well.

BTW; are there any downsides having a shorter execution time?
