Describe the Scenario

I am having trouble with Bookstack generating PDFs of large books. When using the built-in PDF generator, I am greeted with a 504 Time-out error:

But when I use weasyprint, with debug turned on, I'm presented with the following error:

I am running Bookstack using the LinuxServer.io Docker image. To get weasyprint installed, in my docker-compose.yml, I have added the following:

    command: >
      sh -c "
      apk add --no-cache weasyprint && tail -F anything
      "

Then in /www/.env, I'm using the following for EXPORT_PDF_COMMAND:
EXPORT_PDF_COMMAND="weasyprint {input_html_path} {output_pdf_path}"

Exact BookStack Version

v24.05.2

Hosting Environment

Yeah, we set a hard-coded default 15 second timeout for PDF exports commands:

BookStack/app/Entities/Tools/PdfGenerator.php

Line 89 in f0dd33c

$process->setTimeout(15);

I guess we could add an option for the timeout, if you'd like to create a feature request for that.

Since #5119 has now been opened I'll go ahead and close this off.
