Netlify Build - TimeoutError: Request aborted due to timeout

Help
,

Hey I get a timeout error when I build my gatsby site on Netlify which uses a custom fauna source plugin to retrieve data. Everything worked well in prod until yesterday when I started getting timeouts after 10-30seconds.

Not sure if this is a fauna issue or not at this point. I’ve added query timeout and keep alive options to my driver and have async code that has been working well until a day ago. Site builds ok on netlify dev

exports.sourceNodes = async (options) => {

const { secret } = options
const client = new faunadb.Client({
secret,
domain: “db.eu.fauna.com”,
queryTimeout: 30000,
keepAlive: false,
})

try {
const listings = await client.query(…)
return …
} catch (err) {
console.error("ERROR IN FAUNA SOURCE ", err)
}
}

Hi @Stephanos_T ,

I checked the logs on our side for you account and I don’t see errors or anything obvious that could point to the cause.

When were the query timeout and keep alive option added/modified? Were there any other Fauna related changes that were made recently, coinciding with the errors?

Do the build logs on Netlify show more information on the timeouts?

I found this link which might be useful -

It might be worth posting the question on Netlify community as well.

Thanks!

Hey thanks for this.

queryTimeout was added a few hours ago - after 9pm UTC+2 last night Monday 6th.

From Netlfy, I’ve checked the above - nothing seems to apply yet but I have raised this on the forum there too.

The Fauna query code has not been changed recently. The only changes just before the timeout appeared:

  • added 3 more documents to db (the collection is still correctly and quickly fetched in Netlify Dev mode but fails in Prod).
  • manually update 2 fields in 2 documents directly from Fauna Dashboard (documents are correctly fetched and all properties exist when building with Netlify Dev)
4

The build just finished successfully without any timeouts this morning after some noticeable delay. But the next build a few minutes after failed again because of the timeout… And it was again after updating a document field manually from the dashboard. Has been failing ever since.

Problem seems to have been fixed after updating to Gatsby 4 and using Node v 14.15.0 on Netlify - consecutive builds are going through successfully now
