Timeout error within Social Feed Drupal module

[MzudemD]

Hello everyone,

I'm not able to find out where in my setup this error lies, so I'm finally trying here.

I am using the Social Feed module for Drupal, which uses espresso-dev/instagram-basic-display-php. In my local environment, everything seems to work fine, but as soon as I bring that module to my dev environment, the following error occurs in the logs:

EspressoDev\InstagramBasicDisplay\InstagramBasicDisplayException: Error: _makeCall() - cURL error: Connection timed out after 20000 milliseconds in EspressoDev\InstagramBasicDisplay\InstagramBasicDisplay->_makeCall() (Zeile 300 in /var/www/drupal/vendor/espresso-dev/instagram-basic-display-php/src/InstagramBasicDisplay.php).

Have you got any suggestions or clue, how to get this working? I couldn't work anything out in Drupal or the module, so maybe you guys are able to help out.

@MzudemD Are you still experiencing this issue?

[MzudemD]

@hermanschutte I am, but a colleague is off the opinion that this might be due to a faulty php configuration. He was not able to verify or falsify that yet, I will keep this issue updated on that.

I'm still open to any hits that could lead to the solution.

hello developers , any news for this problem ?

[hermanschutte]

@zieddams are you able to replicate this bug consistently? It is a timeout, so would be caused by slow API response from Instagram.

Hey together,

I am also a new user to the socialfeed module on Drupal.
In my company network setup there is a proxy my client cant connect through.

I think the library have to support to optionally set a proxy connection.
Due to my research on PHP cURL, the proxy server have to setup for every single cURL handle?
Our system proxy on a staging system does not apply to the cURL handle initiated at

instagram-basic-display-php/src/InstagramBasicDisplay.php

Lines 288 to 295 in e15ac32

	$ch = curl_init();
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $apiCall);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headerData);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS, $this->_connectTimeout);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS, $this->_timeout);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);

Or am I wrong with anything belongs to setting up proxy correctly?
