Lighthouse returned error: PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT. Waiting for DevTools protocol response has exceeded the allotted time. (Method: Page.getAppManifest) (PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT

[tan...@muvi.com]

Hi Team,

All of sudden i am experiencing "Lighthouse returned error: PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT. Waiting for DevTools protocol response has exceeded the allotted time. (Method: Page.getAppManifest) (PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT" while testing the site https://www.muvi.com and google bot complaining issue Clickable contents are too closer and content width exceeding device width by dropping many pages from index which is a serious issue.

What i believe here the bot is not able to load the complete site with all required js and css, causing this issue.

Could anyone please help here ?

Thanks

We at foriio.com are having the same error when looking the Desktop insights. We currently deployed a version to add a robots.txt route and sitemaps, but that shouldn't be causing this kind of problem..

I have the same issue.

[Panagiotis Padazopoulos]

it seems that the manifest declaration is responsible for this error.

        <link rel="manifest" href="/public/manifest.json">

the complete file is creating a problem or some specific variable in the manifest file is causing the problem?

We are also experiencing this for https://www.southwarkeba.org.uk on Desktop only. But other speed checkers not returning any problems. What gives?

[Panagiotis Padazopoulos]

I have to try by removing a variable each time. Not tested yet.

Here is the manifest to check if something is missing or is wrong.

{
  "short_name": "Ekdromi",
  "name": "Ekdromi.gr",
  "icons": [
    {
      "src": "/public/images/general/icons/192x192.png",
      "type": "image/png",
      "sizes": "192x192"
    },
    {
      "src": "/public/images/general/icons/512x512.png",
      "type": "image/png",
      "sizes": "512x512"
    }
  ],
  "start_url": "/?utm_source=installed_app",
  "background_color": "#f3f3f3",
  "display": "standalone",
  "scope": "/",
  "theme_color": "#044077"
}

Hi Panagiotis,

I removed the manifest.json and keeps throwing the same error message. I think we can discard this possibility.

[Pylon Design]

Turns out we had an issue with multiple cron tasks overflowing. The number of cron jobs neared 30MB in size and so it can not be executed, leading to the timeouts and a huge error log, generated in the site directory  with a single line of the error being about 11MB in size!

[Stefan Maier]

we have the same issue with https://www.schwedenliebe.com

deleting the manifest.json has no effect - problem occurs in 4/5 tests approx. any ideas?

[Conrado Medeiros]

we have the same issue

Any idea?

[Elly Prior]

I have the same problem with various pages at various times: https://www.professional-counselling.com/.

Thanks all.

This bug is now resolved. We pushed a fix at 6PM PST last night (about 17 hours ago).

Specifically the fix for PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT and Page.getAppManifest. It's possible to see other PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT errors, but this one is sorted for now.
