Hi @jhgoebbert
The highlighted value in the screenshot is from a test file that we use to test these components. It shouldn't effect production workflows.
Can you confirm that MATLAB has indeed started up in the background?
Do you have any logs coming from matlab-proxy that you could share when this occurs?
If IIRC, there is a 2 minute timeout where we wait for MATLAB to respond to the proxy.
How long does MATLAB typically take to launch in this environment?
Is this issue sporadic?
Hello @prabhakk-mw
yes, MATLAB is running in the background even though the web-ui shows the error of timeout:

I can read the following in stderr
.
But keep in mind from above - MATLAB is running. I can open the JupyterLab terminal (so on the same system) and start matlab
on there without issue.

I increased this from 100
to 1800
already:
https://github.com/mathworks/jupyter-matlab-proxy/blob/main/src/jupyter_matlab_proxy/__init__.py#L96
Most of the time we stay below 1 minute. But it can take sometimes much longer. This is a GPFS issue over which we have limited control and have to live with.
Yes, this is an sporadic issue. A classical timeout-problem. It works on the same system a minute later again.
Best regards Jens Henrik
@jhgoebbert
Please use the environment variable MWI_PROCESS_START_TIMEOUT
to configure the timeout in seconds that you would like to set for your users. If this value is unset, the default value is 120 seconds.
Great, thank you!
btw: I also increased the timeout of jupyter_matlab_proxy https://github.com/mathworks/jupyter-matlab-proxy/blob/main/src/jupyter_matlab_proxy/__init__.py#L96
The timeout to jupyter-matlab-proxy is meant to indicate how long matlab proxy will take to respond to http requests, and not how long it takes for MATLAB to respond. I don't think it's necessary to update this value.
More information about this value can see be read from https://jupyter-server-proxy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/server-process.html#timeout
Hello everyone,
we came across timeout-issues lately in our setup which can be seen from a screenshot below.
It seems to me as if these issues are timeouts from the function
fetchWithTimeout()
: It would be great we could increase these timeouts (perhaps by a factor one can set through an environment variable) for systems where certain steps can take longer that 10-15 seconds.Best regards, Jens
P.S: I came across a very short timeout (
100
) which might be a bug - see below.Timout-Screenshot:
