Doesn't complete the crawl

[bloach]

Hi,

I have a site with around 200,000 pages. Sitemap crawler only crawls around 5000 and then stops or times out.

Is there any workaround for large sites?

Hello,

it looks like your server configuration doesn't allow to run the script long enough to create full sitemap. Please try to increase memory_limit and max_execution_time settings in php configuration at your host (php.ini file) or contact hosting support regarding this.

Hi Oleg,

I have increased all three resource variables but it would still stop after 500 products.

Any other ideas?

OK . I tried running the runcrawl.php via PuTTy SSH client and it indexed around 15,000 products and then gave following error:

PHP Fatal error:  Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 14580497 bytes) in /var/www/vhosts/ZZZZ.com/subdomains/comparison/httpdocs/generator/pages/class.utils.inc.php(2) : eval()'d code on line 6

I see that you increased it to 64M and it crawled more pages now, please increase it again.

I'm not real familiar with SSH.  Can you explain how I can access your software with SSH.  My site is currently hosted.

I mean if you have SSH access to your server (not to sitemap generator). In this case you can execute it in command line with:
/usr/local/bin/php /path/to/generator/runcrawl.php
