One of the possible causes is the mismatch of the maximum transmission unit (MTU) between the client and server.
If using Linux, to determine the MTU value, run the following command:
ifconfig
This will display the network interface configurations of the server hosting the database instance, along with the MTU value.
If the Appian instance and database are hosted on the same network, review the MTU settings with your network administrator including any firewalls, proxys, or any other entity regulating the traffic between the servers.
If the Appian instance is hosted on Appian Cloud and the database is being accessed over VPN, please contact Appian Support to assist with the MTU troubleshooting.
This article applies to all versions of Appian.
