That’s quite urgent for us right now, I hope you’ll get our message here today: could You please increase our build_timelimit to 90 min if possible? We are on a Free Pro Trial, the site ID is 3fb79e5c-aea1-4088-bff7-2ec310bbcf2c

Thanks in advance

@FSW, done! Try deploying now.

Hi can you please increase the limit to 60min for this site: 2df92f64-83a8-4afa-9d9e-69e5d8ae7e7c

Sadly got a few timeouts and therefore went over the build limit with unsuccessful builds, maybe there is a way to get some of the minutes back?

Cheers

Hi, your build timeout is already set to 60mins. If you are not seeing this take effect please re-deploy.

76

You are right, could you extend it to 90min? Seems like our site is getting too big. We are working on archiving a lot of the data, but until then we really would need the builds to go through. Cheers

Hi, @henry1. the build timelimit has been increased to 90 minutes for that site. If there are other questions or concerns, please let us know.

Hey @luke

Exceptionally important trick unnoticed!!!

You can connect to remote with netlify link, build locally using hugo -b https://mycoolwebsite.com and deploy using CLI: netlify deploy --prod!!!

You can even use netlify build which will follow instructions from netlify.toml such as downloading and using specified version of Hugo, but for some reasons it didn’t work for me: it could not download linked Hugo modules which I use in my Theme.

I did it for my huge site yestedrday, if I enable any taxonomy build at Netlify will go beyond 4 hours max, and right now at Netlify I have Error Code 2 (I assume OS killed process due to not enough memory).

Thanks a lot for providing support! I have few sites with 2 hours timeout, but after encountering error code 2" I need to upgrade to Enterprise from PRO (which gives 5x more CPU?) - or, CLI is super option (which you can use from custom CI/CD if needed)

As a heads up, I was trying to copy the API code from the above guide into the windows command log but each time was getting the error " » SyntaxError: Unexpected token ’ in JSON at position 0". I tried manually updating the JSON being put in after --data but had no luck getting it to work.
