How to increase tomeout in mail laravel
In Laravel, the default timeout for sending emails is 60 seconds. If you need to increase this timeout, you can do so by modifying the timeout
value in the config/mail.php
file.
Here's how:
- Open the
config/mail.php
file in your Laravel project. - Find the
driver
section and look for thetimeout
value. It should be set to60
by default. - Increase the value to the desired timeout in seconds. For example, to set the timeout to 300 seconds (5 minutes), you would set
timeout
to300
.
Here's an example of what the updated config/mail.php
file might look like:
'driver' => env('MAIL_DRIVER', 'smtp'),
'timeout' => 300, // increased timeout to 5 minutes
- Save the changes to the
config/mail.php
file. - Restart your Laravel application or run
php artisan config:clear
to clear the configuration cache.
After making these changes, the timeout for sending emails in your Laravel application should be increased to the new value you specified.
Alternatively, you can also increase the timeout on a per-mail-driver basis by modifying the timeout
value in the config/mail.php
file for a specific driver. For example, if you're using the smtp
driver, you can set the timeout
value for that driver specifically:
'smtp' => [
'host' => env('MAIL_HOST', 'smtp.gmail.com'),
'port' => env('MAIL_PORT', 587),
'timeout' => 300, // increased timeout to 5 minutes
],
Note that increasing the timeout may not always be necessary or desirable, as it can impact the performance and reliability of your email sending process. Be sure to test your email sending functionality thoroughly after making changes to the timeout value.
