The remote server returned an error: (429)

Post by bdotink »

Everytime I try and search something for the soundcloud bot to favorite this error comes up: The remote server returned an error: (429)
What does it mean and how do we fix this.

From those logs I cannot really tell anything.
429 is a Soundcloud status indicating something is wrong.

A quick google and that could be "server not reachable" or "too many requests.

Are you trying to hit Soundcloud too hard from a single IP? If so, *SLOW DOWN*

If not, are you using a proxy? Could that proxy have been down?

Do you have other accounts you can try (on clean IPs / Proxies)? If so please do and report back.

Also, can submit your logs
