XMLRPC Zend_Http_Client_Adapter_Exception' with message 'Read timed out after 10 seconds

Question

I've Googled everywhere but no one has posted a solution, they all say to set the timeout in the config but how do you do this?

How do I reset/override this setting from my XMLRPC client or server?

Here is what I'm trying:

$server = new Zend_XmlRpc_Client('http://127.0.0.1/xmlrpc');
$client = $server->getProxy(); 

// Increasing the timeout
$client->setConfig(array('timeout'=>30));

Here is the error:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Zend_XmlRpc_Client_FaultException' 
with message 'Method "setConfig" does not exist' 
in /usr/share/php/libzend-framework-php/Zend/XmlRpc/Client.php:370

Trying to pass as arg:

$server = new Zend_XmlRpc_Client('http://127.0.0.1/xmlrpc', array('timeout'=>30));

Here is the error:

Catchable fatal error: Argument 2 passed to 
Zend_XmlRpc_Client::__construct() must be an 
instance of Zend_Http_Client

Found the solution and here it is:

$server = new Zend_XmlRpc_Client('http://127.0.0.1/xmlrpc');

// Get the HTTP Client used by the XMLRPC client
$http_client = $server->getHttpClient();

// Increasing the HTTP timeout
$http_client->setConfig(array('timeout'=>30));

$client = $server->getProxy(); 

One Line works for me as well:

$server = new Zend_XmlRpc_Client('http://127.0.0.1/xmlrpc');

// Get the HTTP Client used by the XMLRPC client and increasing the HTTP timeout
$server->getHttpClient()->setConfig(array('timeout'=>30));

$client = $server->getProxy();

Zend documentation specifies the configuration parameters that you are allowed to use. I would guess that you can simply increase the timeout from 10 seconds to 20 or 30. Whatever is appropriate for you.

$client = new Zend_Http_Client('http://example.org', array('timeout' => 30));

or:

$client->setConfig(array('timeout'=>30));

UPDATE - Zend_Http_Client is used by Zend_XmlRpc_Client. You can set and access the Zend_Http_Client via the Zend_XmlRpc_Client object.

$xmlrpc_client = new Zend_XmlRpc_Client('http://127.0.0.1/xmlrpc');
$xmlrpc_client->getHttpClient()->setConfig(array('timeout'=>30'));

I haven't tested this so I don't know that it will work but you can also pass in your own Zend_Http_Client object to a Zend_XmlRpc_Client object using the setHttpClient() method as described (rather arcanely) at the bottom of the Zend documentation page for Zend_XmlRpc_Client.
