Deadline exceeded on urlfetch calls this afternoon.

[Will Reiher]

Getting a bunch of Deadline Exceeded Application Error 5's from the urlfetch library this afternoon with code that has been static for weeks. Thankfully it's failing when checking the shipping rates and not when processing transactions. I don't see any thing in System Status.

My app experienced this too, specifically with URL Fetches from UPS's systems.  But it seems to be more likely a problem with UPS's servers, and not GAE.

Me too. Faced this problem today and also GAE 1.5.5 seems to ignore its extended timeout of 60000 and works with default 5 sec.

Pls google let us know if it comes to your maintainance time or anything else which affects the gae behaviour.

 

Thanks

I can confirm that it wasn't only UPS fetches. I had a intermittent failures when urlfetching small images from AmazonS3 as well.
