Bitbucket backup fails intermittently with error "SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out"

Bradley Logan

I have a backup of Bitbucket scheduled to run nightly using the latest version of the Bitbucket Backup Client, v3.6.0.  Approximately 40% of the time the backup fails with a "java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out" error.

I turned on debug level logging to see if it would give me a better idea of the problem, but so far I haven't figured it out.  Below is an excerpt of the logs mentioning the error.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Hello Bradley,

Thanks for reaching out to Community for your Bitbucket server backup issues and for including detailed logs into the issue you’re having. From reviewing the logs, there is an issue possibly with the database backup portion of the process. With this said, I would like to see if we’re able to back up the database without error using your database application.

Please attempt a database backup and check the consistency of the backup once completed. Any error while attempting the database backup may result in your Bitbucket server backup to fail.

We look forward to hearing how the database backup goes.

Regards,
Stephen Sifers
