The operation did not complete within the allotted timeout of 00:01:00

Question

I am using code snippet to send message into the service bus topic.

        try
        {
            // sb is instance of ServiceBusConfig.GetServiceBusForChannel
            await sb.SendAsync(message);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            this.logger.LogError(
                "chanel",
                "An error occurred while sending a notification: " + ex.Message,
                ex);
            throw;
        }

and implementation is

    public async Task SendAsync(BrokeredMessage message)
    {
        if (this.topicClient == null)
        {
            this.topicClient = TopicClient.CreateFromConnectionString(this.primaryConnectionString, this.topicPath);
            this.topicClient.RetryPolicy = this.retryPolicy;
        }

        await this.topicClient.SendAsync(message);
    }

Error:-

"ErrorCode,12005,Message,""An error occurred while sending a notification: The operation did not complete within the allotted timeout of 00:01:00. The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout.

This happens occasionally. Azure can change and shift their underlying hardware willy nilly. These sort of errors pop up every now and then. As long you have some appropriate retry logic where appropriate, the message will eventually get through ...
