Publishing fails with just 40 entries

Vote 0 Votes

I have a blog set up and started importing from a textpattern install. So far things went quite smoothly, the first 20 entries were imported, I published using the professional blog theme.

But then I decided to take on the next 20 entries. Overall 40 entries in my MT blog. I hit publishing (everything, including the individual archives) and now that I have 40 articles I get an internal server error. Obviously something takes too long for the action to be completed.

Since I am on a shared host and have no way of using command line perl how can I possibly use Movable Type to publish more than just 20 entries? Is there a plug-in that allows me to publish a couple of entries at a time?

MT5 RC3 - German version

  • Try adding the following directive to your mt-config.cgi file:

    EntriesPerRebuild 10

    In this sample you're telling movable type to publish 10 items at once, instead of the default 20.

    Obviously, if your site fails to rebuild with 20 entries (the default settings), you should set it to less articles say 10 as on my sample above or even less...

  • Thanks, Mihai!

    That works great. The documentation mentioned, that 40 was the default value so I set it to 20 and re-publishing is not a problem anymore.

  • Is there a setting for publishing category archives similar to "EntriesPerRebuild"?

    I got Internal Server Error when publishing the archives by categories.

    I also tried command line publishing perl ./tools/rebuild-pages, but the hosting does not have the LWP/UserAgent/Local installed.

    Thanks!

If you need to share template code, replace all the "<" signs with "&lt;" or use this utility.
