[MapProxy] client_timeout

[Sandor Csaba]

Hi list,

I'm brand new to mapproxy and so far liked it very much.

My problem is that I have a quite slow wms (mapserver cgi) and mapproxy
doesn't wait for it until it finishes, but throws a timeout and tries again
which gradually kills the server by starting lengthy mapserv processes again
and again. This gets logged into the proxy.log:

2010-11-29 18:22:59,896 - INFO - 16764:mapproxy.client.http.http:_log -
localhost:81 - - [29/Nov/2010:18:22:58 ] "GET

response from URL (http://localhost:81/cgi-bin/ma...): timed out

If I copy the request url and paste it into a browser, de tile appears ok,
after some minutes of waiting, so I suspect its not an apache timeout.

I found the client_timeout config option, but the server doesn't seem to
take it into account.

The mapproxy.yaml global section looks like this:

globals:
...
  http:
    client_timeout: 86400

Mapproxy 0.9.0 runs as a fastcgi server under Apache2.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you,

Csaba
