I'm trying to have Django (on top of GAE) fetch data from another web service. I'm often hit with error like this:

ApplicationError: 2 timed out Request

Method: GET

Request URL:http://localhost:8080/

Exception Type: DownloadError

Exception Value: ApplicationError: 2 timed out

Exception Location: /google_appengine/google/appengine/api/urlfetch.py in _get_fetch_result, line 325

It feels as if it will time out only after 12 seconds (I'm not sure, but it's really short).

Question: how can I set a longer timeout?

python django google-app-engine timeout
