# WP Error 429

 * I installed your fantastic plug in last night and it worked great, looked great,
   I love it. But then it seemed to break. I’m getting an error message. I suspect
   this is coming from Strava itself?
 * I have a Bitnami installation of WordPress.org running on an aws instance and
   cloudfront for serving. Here is the exact error message in full.
 *     ```
       WP Strava ERROR 429 Too Many Requests - See full error by adding
       define( 'WPSTRAVA_DEBUG', true );
       to wp-config.php
       ```
   
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fwp-error-429%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Thanks [@deltadc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/deltadc/) – there is a 
   limit on the number of requests, you can get the details here: [https://developers.strava.com/docs/rate-limiting/](https://developers.strava.com/docs/rate-limiting/)
 * I might actually try to capture this info on the next release so you can see 
   it in the settings page and know how close to the limit you’re getting.

 * Do you think it could be related to using something like cloudfront as a CDN?
   There is no way I should be getting that many transactions. I get about 200 visitors
   per day at the moment.

 * Hello again jrfoell,
 * I turned off the cloudfront CDN in case that was causing the problem and I’ve
   enabled various visit tracking software and my daily visits are in the 120-200
   range, so I should be very safe on that front. I shouldn’t be coming anywhere
   close to their rate limits. So I guess I wonder if that’s actually the problem?
 * I installed your wp strava app just using the wp installation tool. Could you
   point me to the location where it is installed locally (e.g. the path relative
   to the wp installation?) or is it not that generic. I’m a reasonably capable 
   programmer, so I thought perhaps I could take a look around and see if I could
   get it to output the errors to a text file for my own edification.
 * Thanks,
    Brad
