Failed to finish nested step. Error: timeout of 30000ms exceeded. URL:... method: POST. Error starts randomly throwing in the middle of test execution.

Describe the bug
Hi in the middle of a test execution, sometimes i'll start getting non-playwright errors like this. I can't find anything in the documentation. Usually if a test times out, the terminal prints a playwright error, fails the test which makes it difficult to understand why i'm getting this weird report portal exception about timeouts. If I click the link(s), it tells me I'm not authorized to view page.

The test execution always starts of normally but somewhere in there reportportal starts to throw exceptions. There is no documentation on how to troubleshoot such an issue. The behaviour has been unpredictable to my eyes but definitely has increased in frequency in the last week or two. To the point, I can't get through a whole test execution. The only thing that's changed is an increase in the number of tests.

Expected behavior
For the terminal to only print line results from playwright.

After removing the timeout limit in the report portal config. I am now getting this. This error has also shown.

Error: Request failed with status code 500: {"errorCode":5000,"message":
"Unclassified error [Maximum upload size of 134217728 bytes exceeded; nested exception is org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUploadBase$SizeLimitExceededException: 
the request was rejected because its size (448899054) exceeds the configured maximum (134217728)]"}

I've torn down and redeployed the docker-compose to no effect. I'd really appreciate some help troubleshooting this or at least a direction if more info is needed.

Hello @toduyemi !
I assume that timeout errors can be caused by uploading large files that are not within the acceptable size range defined by the ReportPortal server.
So, if you need to upload such files and there is no way to compress them, try increasing the allowable file size on the server side.
I'll share the link on how to do this a bit later.
I also suggest using the api/v2 endpoint to report data via the ReportPortal Async API for better performance.

You can change the file upload limits by providing env variables to docker-compose for service api:
RP_UPLOAD_MAXUPLOADSIZE: 128MB
RP_UPLOAD_MAXFILESIZE: 64MB

@AmsterGet I tried the suggestion and I'm still getting this exception thrown.

If files are being uploaded, they're files that RP uploads out-of-box. I haven't made any changes with regards to file uploads or test artifacts. I don't know what "such files" would be.

Did I put the env variables in the correct place?
