Unable to fetch assets from "api.loohpjames.com"

[KillerOfPie]

Got this error multiple times between 16:02 and 16:27.

Don't think a stack trace is necessary here. Also, if this is thrown could you make it check if a connection can be made to another server like google or Mojang auth to validate if it is a Server Internet issue or API site issue and provide an appropriate warning?

The issue seems to be a timeout error caused by the API responding after at least ~40 seconds. This results in Cloudflare returning a 522 Connection Timed Out error response.

Getting the same issue as well since latest dev build. Attempted rollback but it's all the same api so it's the same problem. It doesn't seem to mess with the server function, but to be consistent here's the report:

It goes up and down so I'm guessing the connection is just having issues.

Yes there's been some connection issues to the server lately. If only I can afford a better one haha. Well, in the meantime if it continues to work correctly then you can ignore these connection errors.

How much load does your current server handle? I might be able to donate some of my servers' computing power if needed :)

[Espressocodes]

Seconding the last comment. If you need some I would happily donate some server for the api as a fallback. I can't do an immense amount of traffic but I can do some.

[LOOHP]

Well currently the software running the API isn't written with the ability to distribute to different servers. Thanks for your kindness to help tho.

@LOOHP what is api.loohpjames.com and what calls/data are sent there?

[LOOHP]

Here is a copy of the pinned message outline network requests the plugin makes.

InteractiveChatDiscordSrvAddon requires communication to these sites in order to function, please do not block them.

https://api.loohpjames.com (My API, for looking up whether new assets need to be downloaded) https://resources.loohpjames.com/ (Where my resources are hosted) http://resources.download.minecraft.net/ (Mojang assets) https://launchermeta.mojang.com/ (Mojang API) https://piston-meta.mojang.com/ (Mojang API and assets) https://repo1.maven.org/ (Maven repository to download required libraries)

Please do not block my API thinking that it is only used to notify you about plugin updates. It is much more than that. Without the API, you would have to download Mojang assets and my assets and merge them together yourself every time something is updated. (Ever notice sometimes your Minecraft launcher redownloads assets when you boot the game?)
