I have a urllib2 fetch in my code. This GET request takes more than
10s. The code for this is executed as a task but still the timeout is
10s.
Pseudo code:
#handler1
taskqueue.add(some_task)

#taskqueuehandler
class some_task_handler:
#do something...
result = urllib2.urlopen(urllib2.Request(url,
urllib.urlencode(values))).read()
#do something with result...

But this request inspite of being executed as in a task has a timeout
of only 10s.

Please help,
Aman

Hi

The maximum time for urlfetch (which is underneath urllib2 on appengine) is 10sec.

By default it is 5 secs.

You can't get it increased, you will need to look at some other way of solving your problem,
