Same issue in Windows 10. Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve the timeout exception? I am not experiencing any excessive latency or permission issues with any other apps. -tia

I believe all "always-on" sandboxes are under review and inaccessible at this time.

Thank you qsnyder. That seems to make sense. The exceptions thrown were excessive tries and missing the ninety second login threshold. Any idea when they will become available again?

The issues with the Always-On sandboxes have (mostly) been resolved.

As someone who had similar issues in April/May 2023 when testing/developing Python scripts on the always on lab. My advice for those that follow is to check the Webportal via a standard web-browser. If you have issues with that, a python request isn't going to be different. Sometimes the always-on lab APICs get into a bad state (for various reasons).

In my instance, the SSL certificates on the lab were corrupted/destroyed (either by malicious operator or by error) and SSL connectivity was therefore broken.

They have some "on request" labs you can reserve and use for the same but you need to VPN in first. That was a good workaround for me with my testing.
