Just recently, my system started having some issue in apply configuration. Nearly every time of that past 10 or so config applications, it will display error 2 or 3 times, without generating error report under snapshots.

After a few retries, config succeeds.

How can I troubleshoot this issue?

There error should point you to the configuration file where a problem is detected. This error would be visible by running the write config tool. To do this, navigate to:

CCM > Tools > Write Config Tool

Click on each of the buttons, from top to bottom, let each section complete it's process before going to the next, "text should populate the screen notating this."

On the second button you should see red text, and at the bottom of this list.. Nagios XI will let you know where the error's lie. This should help you solve the problem. Remember! Be sure to edit the respective configuration files from the Core Config Manager, and not the command line as they will be over written upon the next Apply Configuration.

No Fix.

I click apply configuration
config verify runs
fails with error - but no error report displayed in config snapshots
config does not apply

I can't seem to diagnose what is happening, but it's been taking at least 2, sometimes more config applications to get success. no change to anythign in between failures - just clicking retry.

This is usually caused by the max_execution_time in yout /etc/php.ini being too low, see the following for how to make the change

then

thanks, that seems to have resolved the issue.
