{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"Network timeouts when interacting with GitHub Enterprise Server","articleBody":"### Describe the bug\n\nI often see errors like this when interacting with GitHub Enterprise Server:\n\n```\nI attempted to create the pull request again, but the same network timeout issue occurred. Unfortunately, I couldn't complete the action programmatically.\n```\n\n\u003cimg width=\"380\" alt=\"Image\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a7dd080c-078a-4723-8dd3-11e618a5f832\" /\u003e\n\nAnd it often does work successfully on retry (clicking the retry button).\n\nI've tried restarting the server through the UI, this doesn't seem to have much bearing on success.\n\n\u003cimg width=\"300\" alt=\"Image\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b399f87a-a33d-485a-91d6-42234edf2040\" /\u003e\n\nOutside of MCP, getting errors while interacting with the GHES server isn't typical.\n\nI'm also running the container with [Colima](https://github.com/abiosoft/colima) (not Docker Desktop).\n\nPerhaps exposing more details about the error could be helpful as well.\n\n### Affected version\n\nPlease run ` docker run -i --rm ghcr.io/github/github-mcp-server ./github-mcp-server --version` and paste the output below\n\n```\n\u003e docker run -i --rm ghcr.io/github/github-mcp-server ./github-mcp-server --version\nserver version v0.1.1 (7ab5d968e065f13a660cd123c2c5d0be6d8b6dbd) 2025-04-07T16:05:10Z\n```\n\n### Steps to reproduce the behavior\n\n1. Start Agentic chat\n2. Ask to do something that interacts with one of the tools\n3. Get a network timeout error like indicated above\n4. Often does work correctly on retry, but sometimes not","author":{"url":"https://github.com/jonathonlacher","@type":"Person","name":"jonathonlacher"},"datePublished":"2025-04-16T13:13:31.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":5},"url":"https://github.com/299/github-mcp-server/issues/299"}
