Attempting to download .tar.gz or zip from a tag results in nothing

Endless spinning and errors in the log:

Seems same as https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/28869 but it was closed because of lack of feedback.

@girish could be a proxy issue where it timeouts trying to assemble a tarball? Could we increase the timeout?

[robi]

@girish would that be testable with an ssh tunnel from the container to bypass nginx?

[nebulon]

@mario if you think this is the case, maybe you can increase the proxy_read_timeout in the nginx config for this particular app and then restart nginx. Hopefully this gives us more insight then.

Think there is some other error here. The tar/zip is streamed and the download should start immediately even if takes a long time to download. I have tried with multiple large repos now and even if it takes a while to download, the download starts immediately. Does this happen with all repos?

[mario]

It was a problem with one of the queues running rogue. Fixed by cleaning that queue.
