             Summary: Django portal dashboard page hangs and fails to ever finish loading
                 Key: AIRAVATA-3392
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRAVATA-3392
             Project: Airavata
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Django Portal
            Reporter: Marcus Christie
            Assignee: Marcus Christie


Ran into an issue where the Django Portal dashboard page would not load. It appears that the Python process was hung. After setting up the [Python fault handler](https://docs.python.org/3/library/faulthandler.html) I was able to determine that the webpack loader was waiting for a webpack build to complete.

To problem is that at some point I ran `yarn serve` or `yarn build` in `django_airavata/apps/workspace`, but I killed it before it could complete. This leaves the webpack-stats.json file in a state where it indicates that the webpack compiling is in progress.

To prevent this from hanging the page from loading and to get a better error message that indicates the actual problem, I'm going to add a 60 second [timeout configuration](https://github.com/owais/django-webpack-loader#timeout) to the webpack loader for each configuration.
