Video Uploads from EC2 to YouTube Stuck at 99% Processing for 3 Days Before Being Abandoned

0

Hello AWS Community,

I've been facing an issue with my EC2 instance that has recently emerged and is affecting my project's ability to upload videos to YouTube. For the past month, my setup worked flawlessly, but something seems to have changed in the last three days, leading to a persistent problem.

Problem Description:

Issue: Videos uploaded to YouTube from my EC2 instance get stuck at 99% processing. After three days of being stuck, YouTube cancels the upload with a "Processing abandoned" status. Observation: The same codebase and process, when executed from my personal computer, completes the video upload without any issues. Troubleshooting Done: Verified YouTube upload guidelines and ensured compliance. Confirmed that the EC2 instance has a stable and fast internet connection, similar to my PC. No recent changes were made to the code or AWS configuration before the issue started. Technical Details:

AWS Service: EC2 Instance Type: t3.small Region: eu-north-1 Software/Framework Used for Uploading: Custom Python script using Google API Error Messages: Only observable outcome is "Processing abandoned" on YouTube after 3 days.

Any insights, suggestions, or guidance would be greatly appreciated as I navigate this issue. Thank you for your time and help.

Hello.

Are there any graphs showing abnormal values ​​in EC2 CloudWatch metrics while uploading videos?
For example, is the CPU usage rate high and the burst credits used up?
Also, are there any error outputs in the system logs, etc.?

    Looking at the metrics, there are parts where the CPU usage rate drops rapidly, but are there any errors output to the system log or application log during that time?

Here is the usage

I can't see anything different between of after the bug that appear around 14th.

Also the same problem happened for my 11 channels at the same time, like there was a change from AWS or that YouTube block amazon IP from uploading which would be very surprising.
