> Soft timeout

Did anybody confront the following error, or do we know how to prevent it?

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/worker/worker.py", line 660, in run
time.sleep(1)
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/billiard/pool.py", line 235, in soft_timeout_sighandler
raise SoftTimeLimitExceeded()
SoftTimeLimitExceeded: SoftTimeLimitExceeded()

Dear participant,

This error happens when the submission didn't stop within time limit (= 20 minutes). Your model.py file should implement this logic by setting
self.done_training = True
after some time of training to indicate that your model has done training.

On our side, we changed a parameter of CodaLab to make this error handled by scoring program and show clearer error message. But in any case, participants should be careful about the time budget and make sure the model terminates within 20 minutes.

Best regards,
