N/A

is the request taking longer than 5 minutes? we have a 5 minute request timeout

You mean 5 minutes before the server completes the process? Yes sometimesit does. Also i get the error immediately after the payload hits the server

so 5 minutes doesn't come into play at all?

Honestly it could because sometimes there are multiple users accessing the server

right but if a single request takes longer than 5 minutes we will close it

I'm not sure but i'm guessing the error is because i'm only using one replica. When i increase the replicas , it messes with my SSE.

You mean if it runs for more than 5 minutes the connection will be closed? If that's the case that should be one of the issues because some request take more than 5 minutes to complete. What is the solution to this?

Websockets are not subject to the 5 minutes, only HTTP and SSE requests

Yes the http request could take longer than 5 minutes. The server uses ffmpeg for video generation so sometimes it does take more than 5 minutes to complete the video generation and send it back to the client.

you would need to move to task queues so that you don't keep the connection open for the entire time

Can you please clarify what you mean by move to task queues

you can find lots of resources on that on the interwebs!

Will it be ok if i end the request immediately but the server keeps running in the background , and when thats done(may take longer than 5 mins) , i send it back to the client

yes

So i have the client send a request to the server , i open an sse to track the progress of the video generation , the video generation goes on for 10 minutes (the sse is also open for 10 minutes) and when the video generation is done , i send another request from the client to retrieve the video

this should work with no error right

No need to queue anything in this case

that should work

Thank you.I'll try that out and let you know

is there some config required for this:

I have a stream of sse events that shuts off exactly at 300s (5 minutes)

i do have the correct response headers

Hi @Brody , Im trying to set up redis using the railway template but its not working. I set it up from the railway dashboard but when i try to connet from my nodejs server i get connection error

please see our docs on this topic -

and please use reference variables -

Thanks brody. The article helped i was able to fix the issue

awesome!

Hey Brody , it seems like my redis server only works on one tasks(not concurrent) even though i set the concurrency to 2 using bullmq in my nodejs server

I'm sorry but that would be an issue with your code

Ah ok i'll keep checking then. I'm just making sure there isnt any railway settings that im missing

nope we have no interaction with how your code talks to Redis
