My python script is getting a stock price from google finance and then posting (using RESTful api) to my web2py application every 15 minutes. When I look at the log files everything works for awhile, but after a couple hours every POST will timeout. If I load the application's default/index page from a web browser then the RESTful POST works for another hour or two and then it times out again. I've run the web2py server on pythonanywhere and on a local computer with the same results.
r = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=json.dumps(payload), timeout=360) def POST(table_name,**vars): if table_name == 'VEXMX': row = db(db.VEXMX.date==vars['date']).select().first() if row: result = {'exists':1, 'id':row.id, 'errors': {}} result = dict(result=result) else: result = dict(db.VEXMX.validate_and_insert(**vars)) result['exists'] = 0 result = dict(result=result) return result On Friday, November 21, 2014 3:55:31 PM UTC-7, Massimo Di Pierro wrote: > > We need more details.
