MERGE timeout while committing large files
user name

Hi all,

I9;m hoping that you guys can help me solve this issue.  I'm using Subversion 1.4.3 with Apache 2.2.3 as the server.  Whenever I commit a large file of about 50 MB or more, I get a "timed out waiting for server" message.  Inspecting the repository after the fact, I can see that the commit actually happened--the post-commit hook script even ran.  But as you can see from the output below, the client times out waiting on the server. 

Any ideas what is going on here? ; Is there a parameter to tweak that will make the client "just wait longer?"

thanks,
David

Hi David,
 
I am no expert, but I would think this is caused by the Apache web server. The link below describes the process to increase the TimeOut directive. Hope it helps.
 
 
Thanks

So if Apache is timing out, I should be able to increase the timeout time. ; However, wouldn';t that imply that there is a limit to how big a file I can check into Subversion??  I can keep increasing the time, but at some point the purpose of the Apache timeout (cleaning up dead connections) is defeated.

Also, Apache timing out seems like a weird reason.  I mean, the SVN client should be blasting data to the server as fast as it can to get the large file committed.  How could Apache';s timeout come into play here?

thanks,
David

Yes, there's a parameter to make the client 'just wait
longer': check
your .subversion area for the http-timeout configuration
parameter.

Also, could it be that you have a pre- or post-commit hook
which takes
a long time to run? If it's not sending any output to the
client, you
should probably try to make the post-commit hook (if any)
detach from
the server: the server waits for the post-commit to
complete, in order
to be able to send back any output to the client.

HTH,

Erik.
