Subscribe

You can track all active APARs for this component.

 

APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • There can be cases where the crawler will fail to complete with
a warning: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out

You cannot extend the value of timeout which poses a problem if
the crawler requires more time to complete its tasks.

Local fix

  • 



Problem summary


    

  • USERS AFFECTED:
WebSphere Commerce V7 administrators who need to provide the
crawler more time to complete large tasks.

PROBLEM ABSTRACT:
The socket-timeout-value in the crawler is not configurable and
is hardcoded.



BUSINESS IMPACT:
Crawlers cannot complete the assigned work so some of your store
URLs might not get crawled.

    



Problem conclusion


    

  • Adds a modifiable timeout parameter.
Instead of relying on the default hardcoded value which was set
to 2000 ms, you can set a different value in the
updated droidConfig.xml file.

For example,
<!-- Crawler HTTP parameter Socket Time-out value in MS -->
<socketTimeout>20000</socketTimeout>
