This was a brand new install on pSek. I am the only user on the WPMU install. I triple checked the login information thinking I had entered it incorrectly, but that doesn't seem to be it.

Thanks Andrew. That seems to have fixed the mail chimp timeout issue. It also fixed an issue with the akismet page loading as well. I am not seeing any other issues as a result of this change.
You may want to update your base install files with pSek.
I'm having the exact issue described in this post - on a new WP.MU install at Psek. This happens when I attempt to add a user to the system.
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded in /home/XXXX/public_html/wp-content/mu-plugins/mailchimp.php on line 1725
The user account is created, but I get the error and there is no email sent.
I tried adding the line Andrew specified to the .htaccess file and continued to get the same error and behavior.
I then removed the MailChimp plugin from the mu-plugins directory - and made some progress. The account was created, the email sent, but the page returned was plain white and text (had no WP UI), with the following message:
=====================
Hello bwtest5, your account has been created!
Username: bwtest5
Password: xxxxx
You can now update your details (and set a password) by Logging in to your account or go back to the homepage.
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/xxxx/public_html/wp-content/mu-plugins/remove-email-verification.php:114) in /home/xxxx/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 856
=====================
Any ideas on getting this fixed would be appreciated...

@airfoil - did you paste to the very top of the .htaccess file?
Can you do the following:
Create a new php file in the root of your mu installation (public_html) with the following in it (give it a random name):
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
And then let us know the path to your file (URL). Note: if the PHP version at the top of that page doesn't start with a 5 then the line in your htaccess isn't working correctly.
@cafespain - I did paste the line to the very top of the .htaccess file.
However, after reading your post, I'm noticing that no matter how I try, the change is somehow being rewritten when I upload the file to the server. I've tried making the change using my editor (DW CS3) as well simply making the change using a text editor and uploading the new file via -FTP-. No matter what, the added line doesn't seem to "stick" once the new .htaccess file is uploaded.
The PHP info is coming back as PHP Version 4.4.9, FWIW.
Thanks Andrew - did as you recommended, and was able to make the change to the .htaccess file.I'm now getting the PHP info to read PHP Version 5.2.6, and no timeout with MailChimp enabled.
However, I'm still getting a plain screen with the new user info after creating an account with the following line at the end:
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/xxxx/public_html/wp-content/mu-plugins/remove-email-verification.php:114) in /home/xxxx/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 856
The account is created in the system, and an email verification is successfully sent. Just the error in "pluggable.php"

Hello, I"m also having the same problem with the time out error
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded in /home/mefeed/public_html/wp-content/mu-plugins/mailchimp.php on line 1725
I'm trying to make the necessary changes to the .htaccess file as Andrew indicated. I'm using the WS_FTP software to upload/download files. I was able to download the file with no problems but I get a permission error when I attempt to upload the updated file. "553 Can't open that file: Permission Denied".
So I attempted to login to the cPanel of our Psek hosting account, but I don't find the file. What is it that I'm doing wrong or missing?

Hi Andrew,
Thank you for replying. I used FileZilla as indicated. When I drag the file to its location, I get a pop window asking me what to do. I select the Action "Overwrite", but I am still getting the same error message. "553 Can't open that file: Permission Denied" I even created a completely new .htaccess file just in case it had to do something with the original file I downloaded.
Also, just to be on the safe side which of the two files is the one that I was suppose to edit?

Glad you got it to work. Quick tip: It's usually easier to just delete the file on the server and upload the modified file rather than try to overwrite the file on the server.

That's tricky - mailchimp seems to be completely up so I doubt it's them - does your host have any limitations on incoming / outbound API traffic?

How many users does your WPMU install have?
Thanks,
Andrew

I am using the free MailChimp account.

We'll look into this.

Does seem strange to get that error when I'm assuming there's only a few folks on that install.
Normally I would suggest bumping up the max time set within php.ini but sounds more like a broken loop issue or a connection not going through to me.

It's an issue with the particular host.
@localwebresults: Try adding the following to the very top of your .htaccess file:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php
Let me know if adding that line results in something else not working.
Thanks,
Andrew

I *think* that you need to add someting to your htaccess file related to fsockopen - lemme just find it)
[few minutes later]
Nope, sorry I think Barry / Andrew might have it though (but they are also on a w/end).
Basically you need to disable fsockopen I think :)

Try deleting the file on the server and then uploading the new version.

Hiya,
That error is indicating a problem with the "Remove Email Verification" plugin. We'll look into it on Monday but for now just remove it.
Thanks,
Andrew
Member (joined April 2009) Likes (0)
Perfect - removed that plugin, and everything now works as expected.
Thanks everyone.
Erstwhile founder (joined May 2007) Likes (0)
Hiya,
A new version of that plugin has been uploaded.
Thanks,

Hiya,
Some FTP clients just don't like .htaccess files and others require you to switch on a "hidden files" feature before they'll work correctly.
Just try another FTP client. Filezilla is free and I know that one works.
