Script save operations were failing with
ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSEdue to missing HTTP server timeout configuration and inadequate error handling in the file write path.Changes
Server timeout configuration (
back/services/http.ts)requestTimeout: 300000ms,headersTimeout: 120000ms,keepAliveTimeout: 65000msto prevent premature connection drops during file operationsError handling improvements (
back/api/script.ts,back/shared/utils.ts)/api/scriptsendpointwriteFileWithLockwith proper try-catch-finally blocks for file handle and lock cleanupType safety (
back/shared/utils.ts)FileHandletype annotationundefinedfor clearer semanticsExample
Before: File write errors could leave locks unreleased or file handles open, causing subsequent operations to hang or fail.
After:
Locks and file handles are guaranteed to be cleaned up via finally blocks, with distinct error messages for each failure point (create file, acquire lock, write file).
