Cannot set timeouts over 15 seconds

[Stono]

Hi,
I have the following VirtualService:

  hosts:
  - app
  http:
  - route:
    - destination:
        host: app
      weight: 100
    timeout: 600.000s

But I'm getting:

< Content-Type: text/plain
< Content-Length: 24
< Connection: keep-alive
< x-envoy-upstream-service-time: 15038
< Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=15768000
* HTTP error before end of send, stop sending
<
* Closing connection 0
upstream request timeout%

When posting a file:

curl -v -F file=@moo http://app.vds-dvla-importer.svc.cluster.local/api/import

The timeout is definitely working, as if I lower it to say timeout: 10.000s, it errors after 10.

Isn't it resolved by #6042 ?

Closing this as @ymesika has rightly pointed out this is a known issue for which there is a bug fix in 0.8.1+

As a temporary workaround for anyone else finding themselves in this situation, adding the following:

spec:
  http:
  - appendHeaders:
      x-envoy-upstream-rq-timeout-ms: "0"

To your VirtualService acts as a work around

@Stono Adding this resulted in a warning in ingressgateway, due to empty weighted_clusters block.
