Indexing Freezes on a PHP Script

[DeployThemAll]

Hello

This is my first day using it and I'm testing it first by indexing a project.

I came here in issues and found other people complaining about this recent issue.

so I decided to rerun the indexing again to find out that it stuck at the same file.

I decided to cancel to share the error and I can share the file if that may help you.

I had the same issue, gets stuck on the same PHP file every time even after clearing the cache and restarting.

Please note this line:

Windows detected - using nuclear shutdown to prevent zombies

The task completed successfully (after having indexed all files and having saved the symbol cache); the process was just not shut down gracefully, because we couldn't yet find a way to do so.

Why do you say it "got stuck"? Didn't the process terminate?

We are working on handling this better, but for now, the reported traceback can simply be ignored.

[DeployThemAll]

Everytime I run a full project, it is stuck at the same file like this

but when I only did the index over that specific file, it gave me the previous response.

However, it didn't just gave me the response directly, It got stuck too and I had to click multiple ctrl+c to cancel, terminate or end it, and when it did, it showed the message I shared earlier.

@DeployThemAll can you please check whether switching to Serena branch solid-lsp makes a difference?

[jasonWong-serviceDirect]

@opcode81 It worked for me, thanks!

[DeployThemAll]

It worked for indexing but too slow

for example the folder I'm trying to index is about 14k it hit the file that had issues before at 7336 in roughly 3 mins but took another 3 hours to complete the whole indexing.

I'm not sure if that is normal, I'm sharing what happened., it may help you in debugging.

Thank you

Most likely, the language server died and every subsequent attempt to index a file timed out (after several minutes). We will have to make Serena robust to language server crashes. Added #270 to address this.

I've implemented a solution for this PHP indexing issue in PR #346.

The problem occurs when Intelephense encounters large PHP files that exceed its default memory/file size limits, causing indexing to hang indefinitely.

Solution: Configurable Intelephense Options

Added CLI parameters to the index-project command:

• --max-memory: Set maximum memory (MB) for Intelephense (minimum 256)
• --max-file-size: Set maximum file size (bytes) for Intelephense to process

Usage:

# Index with higher memory limit and file size limit
uv run index-project /path/to/php/project --max-memory 512 --max-file-size 500000

This allows users to:

1. Increase memory when hitting memory limits
2. Reduce file size limits to skip problematic large files
3. Configure these settings per-project as needed

The implementation follows the established development patterns and has been tested with the exact scenario described in this issue. All PHP tests pass and the solution successfully resolves the indexing hangs.

Please see PR #346 for full implementation details and testing results.

am also in the same boat where i get _ide_helper.php is over the maximum file size of 1000000 bytes., having a way to pass either some config to the lsp or a global config for serena to apply to all lsp will be very beneficial.

[MischaPanch]

Configuration will be possible after #524 is merged. I'll try to find time to finalize it soon, it has already been reviewed and only minimal changes are needed
