Describe the problem/error/question
Suddenly, n8n started to send a huge amount of “timeout” errors.
Since I have many “scheduled” workflow (every 5 min for instance), it continuously sends errors.
When trying to connect to the web interface, I get errors 500 or 504 with the same message.
Yesterday, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app. At first, when all workflows were not reactivated, it seemed like working.
I used that opportunity to stop all current executions, some of them were lasting minutes or hours.
Then I left the office and now it’s the same errors flow again.
I do not understand what particularly changed between a well-working state (has been working like that for 6 months at least), and today.
Do you think something is going wrong in hosting, like a lack of memory or something?
Or is it that the community version is not supporting something anymore?
Thanks a lot for your help!
What is the error message (if any)?
timeout exceeded when trying to connect
