What does HTTP Error 508 mean in regards of Espo processing requests?

[helix101]

Hi @all,

from time to time Espo throws 508 errors. Sometimes none, sometimes the one or the other and sometimes I get 508 for nearly every request. All of them started via GUI. Since Espo seems to retry failed requests it most of the times just does not have an effect. Entities are getting saved etc. Is this maybe a sign for poor server performance? Shall I (can I?) increase timeout configs?

Hi,

It's not Espo throws this error but your web server / hosting provider. Whenever anybody gets some error code returned (in 501 - 599), I recommend to look up this code on the internet first. Usually, it will explain the reason.

There's no such logic in Espo, at least I don't remember such.

Error relating to something about WEBDav.

I don't remember EspoCRM Support any DAV yet. Did you code something relating to this or extension?

Yeah, that's exactly what it is. My shared hosters CPU usage limit was hit. At first I was mislead by the "Loop Detected" message that espcrm also found. That's why I thought this is a error code thrown by Espo recognizing some kind of circular calls...
