Userstories/api.py endpoints worker timeouts

decappi · August 18, 2023, 8:12pm

After a migration from a docker compose installation into k8s, when creating new tickets on the kanban board, frontend hangs up and timeouts.
The configuration changed a lot between the instances, as the services were renamed during migration.

This is how the log looks like on backend(image docker.io/taigaio/taiga-back:6.7.0):

The rest of the system seem to work fine, I’m just baffled I could not see any logs that would explain the timeouts.

By means of debugging with print statements I’ve managed to pinpoint that the worker hangs up when the response is being returned:

  File "/taiga-back/taiga/projects/userstories/api.py", line 309, in create
    traceback.print_stack()

The call hangs up between the userstories/api.py return statement and api/views.py handler call.
The handler never returns a response. I guess there should be some django magic I cannot see in between those traces.

I don’t see any spike in CPU activity when this happens.

Can you help me troubleshoot this?

First of all, we are not k8s experts and currently we cannot give good support to k8s topics. That said, I’m taking a look at the logs.

Just to confirm, the docker image worked as expected before migrating to k8s? or you had this error as well?

As far as I see, you may have some requirements missing:
/opt/venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/easy_thumbnails/source_generators.py:47: UserWarning: Could not import VIL for SVG image support: No module named 'reportlab'.
This is a warning and should not be creating the error. To dismiss this line of troubleshooting: do this only happen when creating issues with images? or it happens also with issues text-only?

How did you add the “print_stack” statement? Did you clone the repo, change some files and build a new image? Or you’re adding manually inside a container?

Solved:
Using the helm chart from here: https://github.com/jmferrer/taiga-docker/tree/taiga6-helm-chart/helm-chart
Values are not documented in the README.md, so I just took the relevant values from the values.yml and modified them.

@yami
Thanks, I’ve figured it out!

To dismiss this line of troubleshooting: do this only happen when creating issues with images? or it happens also with issues text-only?

This happened on starting the container, no issues were created yet, you can see I needed a minute to create a new issue after starting the container.

Just to confirm, the docker image worked as expected before migrating to k8s? or you had this error as well?

No, this error was new. I assume this was due to some version difference on my previous helm chart.

How did you add the “print_stack” statement? Did you clone the repo, change some files and build a new image? Or you’re adding manually inside a container?

I’ve added the statements by logging into the taiga-back container, then

apt update
apt install neovim
nvim <WHATEVER FILE I WAS DEBUGGING>
kill -HUP 1 #this restarts the workers with the new code

You guys should really consider officially supporting k8s, take the linked helm chart as a basis for your own. Now Taiga looks very nice in my cluster
