Detailed Problem Description

Some of our users have encountered an issue where our application does not start from the corporate network. We found that the listener has a slow response time that is not within the timeout of 10 seconds, i.e. the request does not go through and the application does not receive data from firebase.

This is what my setup looks now:

import { initializeApp } from 'firebase/app';
import {
  connectFirestoreEmulator,
  initializeFirestore,
  setLogLevel,
  onSnapshotsInSync,
} from 'firebase/firestore';
import { getAuth, connectAuthEmulator } from 'firebase/auth';
import { getPerformance } from 'firebase/performance';
import { getAnalytics } from 'firebase/analytics';
import { getStorage, connectStorageEmulator } from 'firebase/storage';
import { getFunctions, connectFunctionsEmulator } from 'firebase/functions';
import { boot } from 'quasar/wrappers';
import { useAuthStore } from 'src/stores/auth-store';

const firebaseConfig = {
 ...
};

const firebaseApp = initializeApp(firebaseConfig);

setLogLevel('debug');
const db = initializeFirestore(firebaseApp, {
  experimentalForceLongPolling: true,
  experimentalLongPollingOptions: {
    timeoutSeconds: 30,
  },
});
const performance = getPerformance(firebaseApp);
const auth = getAuth(firebaseApp);
const analytics = getAnalytics(firebaseApp);
const storage = getStorage(firebaseApp);
const functions = getFunctions(firebaseApp);

// Algunas veces falla el emulator de autenticación
// Cuando se encuentra dentro de la función boot

if (process.env.DEV && process.env.USE_AUTH_EMULATOR == 'true') {
  connectAuthEmulator(auth, 'http://127.0.0.1:9099', { disableWarnings: true });
}

export default boot(() => {
  const { handleUserChange } = useAuthStore();
  if (process.env.DEV) {
    connectFirestoreEmulator(db, 'localhost', 8081);
    connectStorageEmulator(storage, 'localhost', 9199);
    connectFunctionsEmulator(functions, 'localhost', 5001);
  }
  auth.onAuthStateChanged(handleUserChange);

  onSnapshotsInSync(db, {
    next: (metadata) => {
      console.log('Snapshots in sync', metadata);
    },
    error: (error) => {
      console.error('Error in snapshots in sync', error);
    },
    complete: () => {
      console.log('Snapshots in sync complete');
    },
  });
});

export { auth, db, performance, analytics, storage, functions };

Setting experimentalAutoDetectLongPolling or experimentalForceLongPolling does not help.

Steps and code to reproduce issue

No idea, this appears to happen intermittently and is more prevalent with certain ISP/mobile internet providers (TIGO). This is not an isolated case; most errors come from mobile devices. There should be sufficient internet speed in most cases, but the error still shows up. 99% of our users are from Colombia.

I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.

From you logs, it seems like the connection was recovered later? Is this what you observed as well?

You can also try to upgrade to the latest, we have done some changes to our network transportation layer recently that might be helpful.

Hey @juan-carvajal. We need more information to resolve this issue but there hasn't been an update in 5 weekdays. I'm marking the issue as stale and if there are no new updates in the next 5 days I will close it automatically.

If you have more information that will help us get to the bottom of this, just add a comment!
