Trying to add tracking on Anilist always results in HTTP 429 error

Kryomancer commented 7 months ago

Steps to reproduce

Log in to Anilist for tracking
Click tracking on any manga entry and choose "add tracking"

Expected behavior

After clicking "add tracking", Mihon should fetch a list of similarly named entries from Anilist and let you choose to track one of them.

Actual behavior

Only a HTTP 429 error is displayed.

Other details

Some people with a similar issue have been suggested that it may be due to having a lot of backed up tracking updates. This is not the case here, as tracking updates go through without issue, this has been an on-going for an entire month now and the worker log shows there is no backlog left:

This happens regardless of wheter I use wifi or mobile data and Anilist opens without errors in browser, so this is happening solely in Mihon.

This issue is similar to #372 but the close reason for that one does not apply to this.

I was suggested to log out and back in to Anilist, this seemingly fixed the issue for a few minutes, after which it immediately persisted, and it's now again stuck permanently 429, so there's still definitely something going wrong on Mihon's side.

HTTP 429 on AniList usually means you've been temp-blocked by them for sending too many requests.

There's a known issue where the tracking update spams requests if it fails, which #411 fixes, but is not currently in Mihon Stable. It was probably sending requests and getting you blocked over and over. But at the moment, nothing you can do except wait for an update to the app with that fix or not read as much

Could you try this again with the 0.16.5 release?

Smol-Ame commented 2 months ago

Closing due to no response & as fixed with #411.

I haven't seen anyone bring up AniList 429 error (besides when their servers go down once or twice) in the past couple months since Mihon 0.16.5

Come to the Mihon Discord support channel for help if you are somehow still experiencing this.
