I agree with Bruce. If it isn't in your general system settings, or your
server (Apache or nginx or whatever) settings then it's something you need
to change in the configuration for whatever scripting language the
archiving application is built in. I've had to increase timeout allowances
in PHP (either in the global ini file, or by setting ini directives
locally) to deal with similar problems in the past.
