 * I have set the maximum execution time to 300 seconds to match the error message
   that I have (see below) but I still have the same issue and error message.
 * It doesn’t seem to be able to create the export to XML file. What can I do to
   solve this?

 * Yes, I tried to post it another time as my first one didn’t get any response 
   and this one neither.
    Thanks for jumping in now but I’m afraid it’s too late.
   I wish you good luck with your business though. Best regards
