Apache WSGI Timeouts After 5 Minutes / How to Set the Maximum Number of WSGI Processes









up vote

I am using Apache and WSGI under Linux to spawn Python processes that run R reports.



It works wonderfully if my Python processes finish in less than 5 minutes. I can stack them up no issue. If reports run longer, I get a timeout on the web client side. What am I doing wrong? How do you set a timeout maximum greater? I'm assuming that 5 minutes is the default.



One additional question - How can I regulate how many Python processes I can spawn under Apache at one time? I know part of that answer is regulated by the number of web requests from the client end.



Any help is greatly appreciated.



Thanks,



Lou

  • Advice: A general way to get around long running processes is to have the process indicate when it is completed, and the client repeatedly check for the "indicator flag" separately via ajax.
