Flask containers show as "Running" in container group and log successful startup but very rarely respond to requests

Orel Fichman 6

I'm running 3 containers in a container group.

2 of them are my own Python containers and the other one is Redis.

Both Python containers show up as "Running" in their status and when I look at their logs I see successful startup.

But they mostly do not work. Most of the times when I send a request it times out, and I do not see it in the log. On the off chance that the containers get the requests, they would take an eternity to return a response.

I'm listening on 443 and 80.
I've scoured everything I could find, tried App Service deployment, to no avail.

I would also like to point out metrics don't show the container group reaching even near the amount of resources I gave it. And the amount of resources I assign has no effect on this behavior.

Would appreciate some insight because I'm honestly beat down to my knees.

@Orel Fichman

Firstly, apologies for the delay in responding here and any inconvenience this issue may have caused.

This issue needs deeper investigation. Support team will be able to check and help on this. I would recommend you to open a azure support case.

If you don't have the ability to open a technical support ticket, please let me know to further help you on this.

i cannot open a support case since I don't have a support plan. I'm an MCT if that helps.

Thanks!

Hey, can I get any further help on this?

I have even gone as far as rewriting the program in Go and same result.
