A lot of "rate_limit_error" #109

Open db0 opened 3 months ago

db0 commented 3 months ago

Hey, I was recently informed that the mlmym I'm hosting for my site (https://mlmym.lemmy.dbzer0.com/) is intermittently failing and I find that its logs are showing a ton of rate_limit_error. I found #92 here where you suggested to check nginx, but mine has no rate limits. I also increased the rate limits on the lemmy instance itself to no avail.

The problem is I don't even know which endpoint is causing these rate limits. Is there a way to figure out how this is being caused?

Also note that the other frontends don't experience this issue

Edit: this doesn't seem to be the solution, as I'm still getting rate limit errors. I'll still leave it up in case it helps anyone, though.

I don't know if this is a solution, but I added mlmym to the same docker network as my Lemmy stack and so far, after around 24 hours, I don't have any rate limit errors.

I have two separate Docker Compose files (managed by Dockge).

The Lemmy stack has this at the top, above the "services":

networks:
  lemmy-static:
    external: true

and then each service has the following:

    networks:
      - lemmy-static

For the mlmym stack, I can get away with just:

networks:
  lemmy-static:
    external: true

You may have to create the docker network "lemmy-static", assigning it a static IP, gateway, etc.

This may or may not be the "right" way to do it, and I don't claim to be an expert.

I've only observed it working for 24 hours, so this might not be a good long term solution. Hope it helps, though.
