I’ve had the exact same problem a couple of weeks ago.
There is a timout that you can define for apache however it somehow didn’t take 
when i tried it.
You really should consider a background task, as Bill suggested.

For me it was a query that took forever. I was able to cut the time in half by 
going through this:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.1/topics/db/optimization/

Especially select_related() helped a lot !

Error 500

Maybe.  But it's generally considered a bad idea to tie up a request thread for 
that long.

A more common solution is to arrange for a background task to do the heavy 
lifting.

If the user must know when the task is done, you can poll in JavaScript.

Hello, I have a process that takes about 2 or 3 minutes to execute. The problem 
is that sometimes (not always) it results in an Internal Server Error 500 
because of the time it takes.
Is there a way to configure Apache or mod_wsgi to prevent this? Let's say, that 
even if the process takes 10 or 15 minutes it just keeps running until it 
finish?
Thanks a lot for the help.
Cheers,
Mauro.
