Describe the bug

Getting request timeout in a pipeline job intermittently when trying to upload a directory of assets to S3 using aws-sdk. The error persists once it occurs in a workspace. Already checked connectivity, couldn't find any issue with that. Tried increasing the timeout also, that was not helpful too.

20:22:13 at Request.callListeners (/mnt1/jenkins/workspace/spr-template-preview-build-v2@2/node_modules/aws-sdk/lib/sequential_executor.js:116:18) { 20:22:13 code: 'RequestTimeout', 20:22:13 region: null, 20:22:13 time: 2024-01-05T14:52:09.752Z, 20:22:13 requestId: 'KXS1VEZVPB199NDR', 20:22:13 extendedRequestId: 'e8aDplpOSLzfFhfHaGt8NACPl3cAxEnImTuDxOP6XKx6nkJ0cTNlK5Rf4w7gwAGQqG8EsekJPA4=', 20:22:13 cfId: undefined, 20:22:13 statusCode: 400, 20:22:13 retryable: true 20:22:13 } 20:22:13 RequestTimeout: Your socket connection to the server was not read from or written to within the timeout period. Idle connections will be closed.

Expected Behavior

Should be able to upload the directly all the time without the timeout.

Current Behavior

Uploading failed with request timeout.

Reproduction Steps

No specific steps to reproduce, used below piece of code to upload the assets.

function uploadDir(localDirPath,  { compress }) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const client = getS3Client();
    const uploader = client.uploadDir({
      localDir: localDirPath,
      s3Params: {
        Bucket: envConfig.storage.aws.bucket,
        Prefix: envConfig.storage.aws.prefix || '',
        ContentEncoding: compress ? 'gzip' : '',
        ACL: 'public-read',
      },
    });
    uploader.on('end', resolve);
    uploader.on('error', reject);
  });
}

Hi @hetpatel33 - thanks for reaching out.

Can we start with verifying which upload operations (s3.upload or s3.putObject) and also share the part of the code where you're calling the operation method?

Hi @aBurmeseDev, below is the code snippet which we are using for uploading

const s3 = require('s3');
const AWS = require('aws-sdk');

function getS3Client() {
  const s3ClientParams = {};
  if (envConfig.storage.aws.region) {
    s3ClientParams.region = envConfig.storage.aws.region;
  }
  if (envConfig.storage.aws.key) {
    s3ClientParams.accessKeyId = envConfig.storage.aws.key;
  }
  if (envConfig.storage.aws.secret) {
    s3ClientParams.secretAccessKey = envConfig.storage.aws.secret;
  }
  const s3Client = new AWS.S3(s3ClientParams);
  return s3.createClient({ s3Client });
}

/**
 * Syncs the directory at localDirPath,
 * with the directory at dirPrefix in the s3 bucket specified in environment
 * @returns {Promise} of uploading the directory
 */
export function uploadDir(localDirPath,  { compress }) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const client = getS3Client();
    const uploader = client.uploadDir({
      localDir: localDirPath,
      s3Params: {
        Bucket: envConfig.storage.aws.bucket,
        Prefix: envConfig.storage.aws.prefix || '',
        ContentEncoding: compress ? 'gzip' : '',
        ACL: 'public-read',
      },
    });
    uploader.on('end', resolve);
    uploader.on('error', reject);
  });
}

Hi there - sorry this fell out of my queue.

The RequestTimeout error typically occurs when the SDK does not receive a response from the S3 within the specified timeout period. This can happen due to several reasons such as network issues or high server load.

Here are a few things you can try to resolve the issue:

Increase the timeout: you can increase the timeout value by setting the httpOptions.timeout property when creating the client:

const s3ClientParams = {
  httpOptions: {
    timeout: 300000, // 5 minutes in milliseconds
  },
  // other parameters...
};
const s3Client = new AWS.S3(s3ClientParams);

Check for proxy/firewall issues: If you are running the code within a corporate network or behind a proxy/firewall, ensure that the necessary outbound connections are allowed for the AWS S3 service.
Implement retries and backoff: If the issue persists intermittently, you can consider implementing retry mechanisms with exponential backoff in your code to handle transient errors and timeouts more gracefully.

Hope it helps,
John
