Read Timeout error when calling kite.orders()

Hi Rakesh, thanks for the response, had a similar issue after coming back home too, here is the error stack trace -

Code was working fine till last week and the present week I have been travelling. When computer sleeps after sometime, I get a read timeout error.

You clearly were not on your original home network when you originally posted this. You said you are traveling.
First of all if your computer/laptop is going to sleep, you will definitely have issues. Sleep means all processing is suspended and the computer enters power saving mode. So you need to ensure your computer/laptop does not go to sleep. If it's a laptop as I suspect, you need to connect it to power source continuously when the code is running (market hours).

The second thing is the quality of your internet connection while you are travelling. If your connection is not stable, there is nothing anyone can do. The only option is to change locations to one where you get a stable internet connection.

And if the problem continues after you got back home, it could be a problem with your internet connection, your computer/laptops power saving settings in bios or a network/network driver issue.
Whatever it is, the issue is unique at your end. It is definitely not an issue at Zerodhas end or the forums would have been inundated with such messages. Thats pretty plain and simple logic.

So you need to debug at your end.
'/Users/akashram/' means you are using a Mac. What is the uptime? I would suggest you do a cold reboot once and try using wired network connection instead of wireless. Also keep an eye on resource usage in activity monitor. You may find some clues there. I have had Firefox go crazy hog all resources and then choke the system affecting other applications. Thats just one example.

Yes and which is why many of us here run our code on the cloud using AWS/GCP/Azure.
