“errorMessage”：任务在3.00秒后超时aws lambda nodejs lambda函数试图与RDS连接

Question

I have written a simple lambda function in nodejs which queries data from amazon rds.(note : my lambda and rds are in default vpc with all ports open and also tried increasing time out in lambda)

My issue is when I test my lambda function I get log output with the queried data but I am also getting

Execution result: failed with "errorMessage": "2017-07-05T15:05:27.425Z 596fdf39-6193-11e7-9176-f58796899f9b Task timed out after 3.00 seconds" }

 var mysql = require('mysql'); exports.handler = (event, context) => { var con = mysql.createConnection({ host: "testdb.cxyzu.ap-south-1.rds.amazonaws.com", user: "root", password: "mypassword", database: "test", port: "3306", // debug: true }); con.connect(function(err) { if (err) throw err; console.log("Connected!"); // var sql = "INSERT INTO users (id, name) VALUES (4, 'dfdd')"; var sql = "select * from test.users"; con.query(sql, function (err, result) { if (err) throw err; // console.log("1 record inserted"); console.log(result); }); }); //callback("sucess"); }

Answer 1

You need to exit the lambda through a success or error callback. Otherwise, the engine stays on until a timeout occurs.

The easiest way to exit your lambda would be to call 'context.succeed("done");' after you code is done.

var mysql = require('mysql');

exports.handler = (event, context) => {
var con = mysql.createConnection({
  host: "testdb.cxyzu.ap-south-1.rds.amazonaws.com",
  user: "root",
  password: "mypassword",
  database: "test",
  port: "3306",
 // debug: true
});

con.connect(function(err) {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log("Connected!");
 // var sql = "INSERT INTO users (id, name) VALUES (4, 'dfdd')";
var sql = "select * from test.users";
  con.query(sql, function (err, result) {
    if (err) throw err;
//    console.log("1 record inserted");
      console.log(result);
      context.succeed("done");
  });
});
//callback("sucess");
}

Answer 2

The accepted solution doesn´t work for me. I´m connecting to a RDS instance and if I send "context.succeed("done")", the callback is not called.

I´m connecting to an Amazon RDS instance inside a lambda running nodejs 8.1.

SOLUTION:

In order to exit of "Nodejs event Loop" you must add the next code to invoke the callback:

connection.end( function(err) {
    if (err) {console.log("Error ending the connection:",err);}

    //  reconnect in order to prevent the"Cannot enqueue Handshake after invoking quit"

    connection = mysql.createConnection({
        host     : 'rds.host',
        port     :  3306,
        user     : 'user',
        password : 'password',
        database : 'target database'

    });
    callback(null, {
        statusCode: 200,
        body: response,

    });
});
