Issue Increase Nginx timeout

18.0.72

Hello,

I'm desperately trying to increase Nginx timeout through Plesk interface under Domains → Apache & nginx Settings → Additional nginx directives but I still have an error in the logs saying "upstream timed out (110: Connection timed out) while reading response header from upstream".

I'm actually using Nginx as a proxy alongside Apache and running PHP via FPM behind Apache.

I have a PHP script that can run for a long time due to external calls and parsing so I set the PHP timeout to be of 300s. I did the same for Apache in "Additional directives" using the following:

ProxyTimeout 300
Timeout 300

And also added, still in the "Additional directives for Nginx":

proxy_connect_timeout 300s;
proxy_send_timeout 300s;
proxy_read_timeout 300s;
send_timeout 300s;

Both PHP and Apache don't seem to complain but Nginx is somehow cutting the request.
What am I missing here? Do the Nginx directives interfere with Plesk's default block?

In fact I don't want to set it for all the requests but only for a specific URL. For now, I'm just trying to make it run.

Thank you in advance for any help or advice.

Try adding the following to additional NGINX directive:

fastcgi_send_timeout 300s;
fastcgi_read_timeout 300s;

You can also try increasing it even more and see what happens.
