Timeout joining big remote rooms
shyrwall opened this issue · comments
Sorry for filing a support request but I can't join #synapse because of this problem.
Tried looking at other issues. Some are old with fixes (which obviously does not apply here since the fixes are included) and others don't really have an answer or are closed without resolve.
When joining (preview works) for example #synapse:matrix.org after a while this appears in the logs,

Increasing client_timeout under federation does not seem to help.
Thank you
For joining big rooms the request does sometimes time out, but eventually completes in the background. Did the room eventually appear in your client?
After timing out and the client showing the internal server error it goes back to the room preview mode and stays there.
Edit: For note, probably irrelevant, the room preview shows the title and latest version of synapse to be 1.88.0 so i'm not sure how the preview works since it's not up to date.
