Error: socket.timeout: The read operation timed out

Hello,
thanks for your work so far. I have an issue with your script, there is a timeout which I am not sure where it comes from:

socket.timeout: The read operation timed out
The proxmox.json looks as follows:
cat proxmox.json
{
"url": "https://ip:8006/",
"username": "user@realm",
"password": "pass",
"validateCert": false
}
Any idea what may be wrong here? Thanks in advance!
What ProxmoxVE version do you have?
Can you test connecting to https://ip:8006/ URL vía curl?
Thanks
Proxmox Version:
Kernel Version Linux 5.4.114-1-pve #1 SMP PVE 5.4.114-1 (Sun, 09 May 2021 17:13:05 +0200)
PVE Manager Version pve-manager/6.4-8/185e14db
curl (without the -k parameter curl fails because it is a self-signed cert)
> curl -k https://ip:8006

So apparently it's not a connection issue.
It looks that your Proxmox requires more time to return the gathered data. You could try incrementing the timeout in your /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg file:
command_timeout = 60
Thanks
Thanks, but that didn't do the trick. I noticed that the timeout occurs after 8 to 10 seconds, even after increasing every timeout in ansible.cfg.
Using another Proxmox Cluster with less machines didn't help either.
@xezpeleta Any other ideas what might cause this timeout? Your help is highly appreciated!
@wonkytreestump Just curious, when you run the curl, did you run that on the machine where you want to run ansible? Can you curl again but this time use the actual API URI for that authentication, be sure to run it on the machine where you expect to run ansible.
