Seems like OSBot login server is encountering problems

Can logon, but usually from 30-40 attempt. Most times it returns "The server failed to handle your request"

I sometimes get it when refreshing the Forum.

Nobody else experiencing this problem?

I get some time ok authentication, then some time this

"Error authenticating bot profile. Please try again later".

Any idea why does it comes?

I run like 100 bots, one tab per OSBot.

Before 2.2.15 all was ok.

Hey we're looking into the issue! We know you're a very active user and we'd like to help you out. 

I think this should be resolved, but I'm not sure since I can't be absolutely certain of the cause.

It seems not resolved atm.

The same scenario - some time bots load ok, then start getting "Error authenticating bot profile. Please try again later", if repeat logon attempt - "Server failed to handle your request".

Seems like it is done synchronously on all my PCs (auth ok on all PCs, then auth error all PCs).

It was better at a time of Zach's post, but then switched back to authentication error.

It also writes this sometimes:

Update: website osbot.org also sometimes gets strange error: when I try to download OSBot, it writes "Please download OSBot directly from the frontpage: www.osbot.org". Trying download from frontpage gets same message.

 

This is what I get if manually logon after auto auth failed:

Think I've found it!

It is due to many connections from my IP to OSBot login server.

OSBot authenticates without using proxy, and this is why there are many connections to server from my ip.

When I changed settings so authentication also go through proxy - the computer where I did it started to run bugless, while others suffer from (possible) connection limit bug.

 

So, Dear Devs, can you please extend me amount of possible connections from my IP (or maximum frequency of connection attempts, I dont know what you do anti-DDOS by).

 

P.S. It is only assumption, but i hope it is right.
