increasing upload_connection_timeout values about imgur-screenshot HOT 3 CLOSED

--connect-timeout

Maximum time in seconds that you allow the connection to the server to take. This only limits the connection phase, once curl has connected this option is of no more use.

5 seconds should be enough to establish a connection.
The actual time to upload the image is -m 120 (2 minutes). This should be fine as well.

curl: (28) Resolving timed out after 5515 milliseconds

This does look like a DNS issue though. Can you reach https://api.imgur.com?

However, you can tweak these upload_connect_timeout, upload_timeout, upload_retries settings in your config if you're on a slow network.

My mistake for the values names.

But in my case, i removed all upload_connect_timeout, upload_timeout and upload_retries from the cURL options and it works just fine.

Maybe I'll have a look with my DNS and see again.

And yes, i can reach the link.

Edit: it's the ---connect-timeout issues anw, I used the original imgur-screenshot.sh file, change upload_connect_timeout='10' from ~/.config/imgur-screenshot/settings.conf and it worked.

Edit 2: a notify-send "Imgur Screenshot" "Please select area" at line 122 would be nice.

Okay, this seems to be a problem with your (apparently rather slow) internet connection.
Glad you could fix it.

Can you open a new issue for your 2nd Edit?
