I have a webpage made in Django that feeds data from a form to a script that takes quite a long time to run (1-5 minutes) and then returns a detailview with the results of that scripts. I have problem with getting a request timeout. Is there a way to increase time length before a timeout so that the script can finish?
[I have a spinner to let users know that the page is loading].
We don't change the request timeout for individual users on PythonAnywhere. In the vast majority of cases, a request that takes 5 min (or even, really, 1 min) indicates that something is very wrong with the app.
