RPC response timed out
I am unable to install any applications on a new tipi install, all apps time out.
both app log and error log dont provide any additional information as to why they time out so other than just making the timeout longer I dont know what to trouble shoot.

Hello again!
Let me explain why you're getting this log message
For Runtipi to install an app, an external command must be called, in our case Docker
Runtipi does not parse Docker's output (it is quite hard to do so), so it has no idea if Docker is stuck or not
That's why a timeout was implemented to catch such cases
A default value of 5 minutes was chosen and a setting was added to change it in the case a user has slower than usual internet
The "timeout" error doesn't mean that the command failed, it may be working just fine, but the installation status won't be reported to Runtipi after the timeout passes
It is of course possible that this is not an internet issue and there is another error somewhere in the installation pipeline
You should be able to check that in the log
cause unknown, solution: reboot container
