django - Nginx timeout settings

Question

I use Nginx Django FastCGI to run a service to process a huge XML. The file is too large and the processing is slow. It times out halfway through the process.
I changed the Nginx configuration. It was originally 60 and changed to 120, but it seems to have no effect. It still times out in 60 seconds.

location ^~ /api/ {
    proxy_read_timeout 120;
    proxy_connect_timeout 120;
    fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:8080;
}

Is there anything else that needs to be changed?

Answer 1

should use:

fastcgi_read_timeout 600;
fastcgi_send_timeout 600;

These two options.
fastcgi_read_timeout refers to the timeout of the entire process of sending a response from the fastcgi process to the nginx process
fastcgi_send_timeout refers to the timeout of the entire process of the nginx process sending a request to the fastcgi process

Both options default to seconds (s) and can be manually specified as minutes (m), hours (h), etc.

Answer 2

For pages that take a long time to process events, it is best to change to asynchronous processing. The connection time of Nginx does not seem to exceed 75 seconds.

fastcgi_connect_timeout 75;
fastcgi_read_timeout 120;
fastcgi_send_timeout 120;

Answer 3

proxy is the time for the proxy to communicate with the backend, and the fastcgi timeout needs to be modified

Answer 4

Check if it is 504 or 502
