Hi All,
I’ve been having a go at setting up a WebPageTest private AMI instance to provide some performance bench-marking for our website.
I’ve got it running, however the tests sometimes don’t run. When they don’t run the following happens:
Timeline:
[list]
[]I make an API call
[]The controlling machine boots up a test instance
[]I continue to ping the API every 20 seconds for completion and it keeps recieving a 100 status
[]At some point in this process the test machine terminates (I checked in 49 minutes later), the test is still showing a 100 status
[*]At some point WPT times out the test and forces it to complete.
[/list]
Logs
Individual test log:

2018/03/05 19:22:06 - Starting test (initiated by tester i-0e3931ee461b73553)
2018/03/05 19:22:06 - Run 1 assigned to i-0e3931ee461b73553
2018/03/05 20:35:22 - Test run 1 has been running for 73 minutes on i-0e3931ee461b73553, forcing done.
2018/03/05 20:35:22 - Test has been running for 73 minutes and it has been 100 since the last update, forcing the full test to finish.

This shows the test run, but I think it looks relatively innocuous.

My set-up
[list]
[] webpagetest-server-2014-11-25 (ami-9978f6ee)
[] controller instance on t2.micro - EU Ireland
[] test instances haven’t touched, so are running on m3.medium that the AMI scales by default
[] I have slow_test_time=200 in the settings, but I’m unsure where that logs to.
[/list]
How can I debug this issue? I’m struggling with where to go next.
