Unable to get a streaming Response from ChatGPT

ChatGPT Bugs

I test Chrome/Edge/Firefox, all of them prompt this same error

42

Same bug, started 20 minutes ago. Offered solutions don’t work. MacOS, both Chrome and Firefox.

DIDN’T HELP:

  1. Disabling ipv6 (Link local only in MacOS settings)
  2. Disabling ipv6 in Firefox’s about:config

WHAT HELPED (KIND OF) IN 60% OF CASES:

  1. Create new chat, send anything to it e.g. "openai devs suck "
  2. It hangs
  3. Refresh
  4. On the left, there’s a new chat “OpenAI devs struggle” with the response
  5. Continue in this chat normally. NOTE: it still returns the “Failed to execute ‘getReader’ on ‘ReadableStream’” error and still hangs sometimes. But often it works.

I was having this problem, and am using firefox (a fork of firefox, to be specific) on Windows 11. I had already disabled adblockers and noscript, but now I also disabled the built in firefox “advanced tracking protection” for the chatgpt page and it seems to be fixed.

I’m having the same issue with macOS and Chrome…

45

Same issues on all browsers in Ubuntu 23.10 (firefox, chromium, chrome). I think it has something to do with routes, as it only happens when i am on VPN, logged in with another account. Because on the account without VPN i didn’t notice this problem a single time

47

I tried all the methods that everyone said were useless, so I posted a bug message. No one replied to lol!!

Solved ! ! !
I had the same problem as you guys and I also tried to disable ipv6 but it didn’t solve it, the final solution was to fix my socks ports, maybe you guys should make sure your socks protocol ip ports are correct!

Great. But how to “fix socks ports”?

51

Are your system’s environment variables regarding proxies set correctly? You can check this first, if the value of this variable is not consistent with the ip and port of your proxy server, you may “fix socks ports” ,which variables in Ubuntu is “all_proxy”.

open the developer panel in browser,then switch to network tab, to check the ‘disable cache’ option,it resolved my issues about this topic.

54

firefox: diable enhanced tracking protection fixed it.

55

For anyone who is using a ssh tunnel as proxy (established with ssh -TNf -D 127.0.0.1:proxy-port user@proxy-ip). This command starts ONLY socks proxy, no http/https proxy. So you have to set correct ‘proxy protocol’ like this (in Switchy Omega Chrome extension):

57

Because https://ab.chatgpt.com/v1/rgstr is getting a 403, the page halts in Firefox. Any news on this?

58

It does help, exactly the issue for us - “firewall”

I am having this issue as well, it started within the past 2 weeks. I’ve tried all of the fixes above, none of them have worked for me.

My issue is across three different devices (Windows 11, Windows ARM64, and Android), three different networks (both cell and two different WiFi networks), and two browsers (edge, firefox). The only place I don’t have the response lag is in the Android App…
