Hi @tagnev, I need a few more details to help you debug this:

  1. What system are you doing this on?
  2. Do you see any specific errors in the logs?

Sometimes there are timeout errors with large amounts of data, but it’s hard to say at this stage.

Thanks for your prompt response.

  1. What system are you doing this on?
    Initially i tried my local windows 11. There also same issue.
    Now, I am using Ubuntu
    Hardware: 64 GB Ram & 256 GB Hard Disk
  2. Do you see any specific errors in the logs?
    Dont have specific errors in the logs.

The system looks good. I know you said the logs are too big to attach, but I need more information - could you look if there are any specific exit codes or exceptions being raised, and perhaps attach the second half of the logs?

will re run again and share the logs

Thank you, I’ll keep an eye on this thread!

Attached the today server log from file from UI. Badly need your support on this please.

  1. Could you update Airbyte to the latest version? We are up to 0.40.0 now
  2. What are the versions for both connectors?
  3. How many tables do you have? I think this may be an open issue you’re running into that’s still being worked on:

Here are the docs on how to upgrade Airbyte:

This will upgrade unused connectors and will handle data migration for you. Let me know if you have further questions and if you get the chance to look at that guide!
