500 server error when using HTTP API cat and stat to node using s3 datastore

[shc261392]

Hi, I've met an issue using IPFS node built with the go-ds-s3 plugin. For now I can't be very sure about what the root cause is, but I'll provided as many information as possible, would be very appreciated if anyone could help.

Problem

When using the built IPFS node's HTTP API api/v0/cat and api/v0/stat, sometimes a 500 error (Internal Server Error) will be returned. So far we have tried but can't find a stable way to reproduce this issue. From what we've observed, calling the exactly same API endpoint will same headers and query parameters does not always meet this problem.

The same problem never happens on another IPFS node using the default datastore without this plugin, so we think the might be an issue related to the plugin.

Making API calls like api/v0/add or api/v0/get seems always works however.

EDIT: the problem also happens for api/v0/add

Logs that might be related to the problem

We have turned the IPFS daemon's debug flag --debug on, but it produces very verbose logs. Since I'm not so familiar with how to debug IPFS daemon, I can only list some error messages that I think might be related the problem. I can provide more detailed logs or look for some certain debugging messages if I know where to look at, please let me know if there's something else that might help.

Logs that we think might be related to the problem:

api/v0/add also will return 500 internal error sometimes.

[guseggert]

Is there a body to the response? If so it might have an error message in it. Also the error is logged if you turn on debug logging for the "cmds" system ipfs log level cmds debug.

[shc261392]

There is only Internal Server Error message, no additional info.

After setting the cmds subsystem log to debug level, here's what I've found that could be relevant:

Awesome thanks. This smells like ephemeral port exhaustion, could you check the number of TCP conns in TIME-WAIT state? ss -at | tail -n +2 | awk '{print $1}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n

Although the fact that this error is also happening on both TCP and UDP swarm sockets suggests there may be something deeper wrong with your host, like misconfigured networking.

[shc261392]

Here's what I get for running the above command:

$ ss -at | tail -n +2 | awk '{print $1}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
     16 LISTEN
    454 ESTAB
    503 TIME-WAIT

The node is running on an EC2 instance in the same region as the S3 bucket, the only network-related config I've added is allowing HTTP and HTTPS inbound traffic in security group which is probably not related to the issue. I'm not sure what should I check next.
