DIMSE failure (aborting association): DIMSE No data error when retrieving big CT

[Robert van Ommen]

Hello,

I'm getting:

E0705 12:10:16.143091 CommandDispatcher.cpp:877] DIMSE failure (aborting association): DIMSE No data available (timeout in non-blocking mode)

While trying to retrieve big studies (lots of images).

I do not get this error when retrieving smaller studies.

I think I get this error because it take a long time before the first image gets send to Orthanc (the sending server first has to retrieve the complete study from nearline storage).

I believe this can be fixed by increasing the DIMSE C-move timeout.

I cannot find a configuration item to set this timeout.

Can you make this timeout configurable?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Robert

Dear Robert,

I have just added two new options to fine-tune the DICOM timeouts:

https://bitbucket.org/sjodogne/orthanc/commits/fabf7820d1f194149f15f0d40123dda498db5e08

  // Set the timeout (in seconds) after which the DICOM associations

  // are closed by the Orthanc SCP (server) if no further DIMSE

  // command is received from the SCU (client).

  "DicomScpTimeout" : 30,

  // The timeout (in seconds) after which the DICOM associations are

  // considered as closed by the Orthanc SCU (client) if the remote

  // DICOM SCP (server) does not answer.

  "DicomScuTimeout" : 10,

In your case, you would need to increase "DicomScpTimeout".

Please could you tell me whether these options solve your issue?

Regards,

Sébastien-
