Retrieve_series_metadata Hangs Indefinitely Without Timeout #87
Description
The retrieve_series_metadata function is exhibiting unexpected behavior where it gets stuck and does not raise a timeout exception even after waiting for an extended period (hours) . This issue occurs when attempting to retrieve metadata for a specific series using the retrieve_series_metadata function with a certain series_uid and study_uid.
To improve the context:
-
The same series_uid and study_uid hang indefinetly alse with retrieve_series and retrieve_study method.
-
The same series_uid and study_uid return good result for the search_for_series method (<1s).
-
For different series_uid all the methods seem to work so a WADO-RS avaliabity issue on the server can be discarded (At least 1000 series tested).
Although we definitely cannot rule out a bug in our end (any suggestions in this regard are welcome) the library should have a method to hang a request that takes too long.
