• Noticed on multiple individual sites over the past week or so, when accessing the dashboard and in some cases when making it to the dashboard but attempting to clear cache a red bar at the bottom shows a very generic message:

    “Too Many Requests”

    Searching this on the internet or the Cloudflare website doesn’t provide much clarity.

    Often if I try again a few moments later, everything works as expected again.

  • Hey Philip,

    This (outside of Cloudflare) can often be because of some rewrite issues on the origin host, you may want to check the .htaccess of nginx.conf for the sites.

    It could also be an intermittent issue on CF, personally I haven’t seen this on any sites.

    Hi blindpet,

    Thanks for the suggestion. Most .htaccess is pretty basic.

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
    # END WordPress

    I should note that most of these sites have been using the same Cloudflare setup for a fairly long time, some well over a year or longer and only recently started behaving this way.

    Also, some are apache, some are nginx which leads me to think it’s not likely the environment but I’m open to all ideas, thanks again!

    I also see this in the console:

    Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: #/home in load-scripts.php

    The url is: .../wp-admin/options-general.php?page=cloudflare#/home

    Looking at the console log messages I can also see a ZONES_FETCH_ERROR with error:undefined after a successful CONFIG_FETCH sourcing from /cloudflare/compiled.js.

    Immediately after the fetch error is the NOTIFICATION_ADD which presents the “Too Many Requests” message.

    I am using CloudFlare Free SSL and redirect from HTTP to HTTPS takes a lot of time on my website AQUALYRICS . What could be done make the redirect less time consuming. Thanks
