PHP Curl request increase timeout

I have this php code that consumes an api. I have one request that takes a long time almost 4 minutes. The curl request times out and returns an empty response.

I found this solution.

ini_set('max_execution_time', 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 0);

But this doesn't have any effect.

How do I wait for the request to finish execution. Here is full snippet.

ini_set('max_execution_time', 0);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT, true);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 0); 

$response = curl_exec($ch);
$httpCode = curl_getinfo($ch,CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
curl_close($ch);

I had this error too and had to change directly the default_socket_timeout in the php.ini file. After that, you have to reload Apache and it should work.
