I have a minimal flask api deployed on digital ocean wich trhows this error when i do a large request:
[1] [CRITICAL] WORKER TIMEOUT (pid:16)
I tried:
/env/Lib/site-packages/gunicorn-config.py (0 is unlimited,but i tried 500 etc)
class Timeout(Setting):
name = "timeout"
section = "Worker Processes"
cli = ["-t", "--timeout"]
meta = "INT"
validator = validate_pos_int
type = int
default = 0
desc = """\
gunicorn_config.py
bind = "0.0.0.0:8080"
workers = 2
timeout = 300
Procfile
web: gunicorn app:app --timeout 300
But i get the same error on the digital ocean console,and on the browser frontend i get the 504 error after about 30 secs wich means im not overwriting the 30 seconds gunicorn default. Smaller/faster requests they work good.
Any idea what can be the issue? Thanks so much!

Hey @floatingbluegreenjellyfish,
Setting the timeouts in the run command should work.
But note that there is a hard set 100s timeout in the App platform for requests that unfortunately can’t be changed.
However, if the request is timing out in 30 seconds that could be due to resource exhaustion.
Please reach out to our amazing support team who will be more than happy to assist you with this :)
Hope that helps!
