Handy Not Responding - Error 429 - Too Many Requests

Help
1

Has anybody noticed problems with Handy starting yesterday?

I am getting http error 429 ‘Too Many Requests’

It might be related to the update from 120 to 240 calls/minute. The HTTP response message header has a counter that seems to skip numbers or counts calls that were not sent.

I have already contacted the devs as it looks like it’s not on my side.
Can anybody confirm this?

Yeah, i had a lot of issues yesterday, losing sync etc. It’s a bit better after the firmware update i think, but i still lose the connection quite frequently, especially on the handyfeeling website. HandyControl is the only thing that works for the entire length of a video (thanks for the program btw.)

3

Same here, I’d use ScriptPlayer if I were you

4

Tons of issues today (first time I used since update). Any time I tried adjusting sync it would disconnect and not reconnect. I had to quit my browser (tried both safari and chrome) unplug the handy and restart connecting from scratch and eventually it worked

5

Nothing but connection problems on my end. I eventually started getting the “Error 429” after 45+ minutes of frustration.

6

I was having this problem even on handyfeeling.com playing local video yesterday. Very strange considering all I did was upload, sync and play a single video (with a few skips and play/pauses thrown in)

7

Not sure what is going on atm but the response header has changed since yesterday.
Maybe this is a temporary or permanent fix :upside_down_face:.

8

Can confirm - and that causes certain commands (e.g. set stroke) to fail.

9

HandyControl is not affected. Stroke , Speed, Playand other are working as always.

10

Might be because of different implementations - in my case the problem seems to be a changed return type

11

I just pushed a fix for the mentioned problem in ScriptPlayer: The API suddenly returns the stroke length in mm instead of % and that broke a response deserialization that expected an int, not a float

I think there were at least two values in the API which were wrong documented. % / mm
They ‘fixed’ it by sending both values now^^

13

Oh btw, syncAdjustTimestamp is now sending responses instead of timing out

14

Have not tested this in the new API yet. It was broken before. Might test this out soon :slight_smile:
