The remote server returned an error: (429) Too Many Requests

Hey All, first post here, new to Nzbdrone as of yesterday and I’ve become a little stuck.

Everything seemed to be fine and working great when I left it last night, and I have just come to look at all my new episodes downloaded this morning to find nothing has downloaded.

After looking further into the logs, its full of the following error:

    14-8-29 09:50:34.1|Fatal|NzbDroneErrorPipeline|Request Failed

System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (429) Too Many Requests.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am running Windows Server 2008 R2 if that helps/makes a difference?

All the best,

Welcome @Radeon :smile:

Which version of NzbDrone are you running ??

Look in the System page and the About section.

Sorry! Version 2.0.0.1861. :smiley:

easy, you’ve run into your indexer download limit.

huh? I cant see that being the case? I only had 4 test downloads last night and would have tried for 6 last night? Although i did think it was weird that it seemed to be working fine when i left it?

regardless, the indexer is returning that error.

What indexer are you using?

Understood, (deleted your post since the first doesn’t like public mentions, at least, so i’ve been told).

I would check on their site to see if they show your the api/download limit.
For example, oznzb has a 5 api and 5 download limit for free users, which is why I was asking.

You can also look at usenet-crawler.com as alternative.
