# GN3 NGINX Timeout ## Tags * Assigned: alexm * Keywords: CD, GN3 * Status: closed * Priority: Medium * Type: Bug ## Description The issue is that some requests to the GN3 API result in an nginx 504 Gateway Time-out error. This may not necessarily be a bug, but encountering a request timeout within 30 seconds is a short timeframe. Previously, we had a related issue where the Gunicorn server would timeout. A fix was introduced by increasing the timeout. For reference, see the issue: => issues/cd-gn3-configurations An example is when querying the Fahamu API to get non-empty results; one might have to wait up to 2 minutes. To test this on CD: ```bash curl --json @json_data.txt https://cd.genenetwork.org/api3/llm/gnqna ``` The JSON file: ```json "querygnqa": "describe what genetics are" ``` Results: ```html 504 Gateway Time-out
