I'm getting the following error message:

Warning: file_get_contents(http://localhost/sample_pie.php) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond. in C:\xampp\htdocs\EXACT\report.php on line 206

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded in C:\xampp\htdocs\EXACT\report.php on line 206

Here is the line 206:

$url = 'http://localhost/sample_pie.php';
$img = 'C:\xampp\htdocs\piechart.jpg';
file_put_contents($img, file_get_contents($url));

What do I have to do to fix this?

Your script executed for more then 60 seconds and was terminated. There is a value in php.ini defining maximum time PHP script can run. The purpose of this is to prevent scripts from hanging. You could try to optimize your script but if it's intended to run for so long you can just update the value (it's called max_execution_time).

You can also try changing this value for particular script by running set_time_limit() function, docs here

Thanks @RaYell for this solution, this answers still works on Laravel 11, with PHP version 8.2.

max_input_time can also cause the same error.

thanks, this work for me max_input_time=3600 or 1 hour :)
Thanks :) The error message "Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded error" is not so clear when it's caused by max_input_time...

Just increase the max_execution_time in php.ini. Set it to 1800 and restart your apache or any other server you are using.

The error means that PHP is not able to open http://localhost/sample_pie.php to read the contents of the file. See if you are able to open the http://localhost/sample_pie.php file in browser.

Also is the page very large?

It means PHP was unable to access the resource http://localhost/sample_pie.php, and thus the operation timed out. Try to access it through the browser.
