I’m having an issue where all WoW API requests made by a bot that I run are timing out when I run the bot from its cloud space. If I run the bot from my home computer, the API requests are successful.
My bot has been using the Blizzard API for about a couple years now, and I haven’t had this issue before.
The timeout errors have been happening since yesterday when there were DDoS issues happening for Blizzard WoW servers–is this a related issue?
Thank you.
Edit: the bot normally runs from Digital Ocean.
I’m also experiencing this type of timeout, since the same time-frame. I can’t find any status regarding these issues.
Thanks!
Happening to me aswell, works fine on local machine.
Anything I have hosted on Digital Ocean is not working.
Same issue with Linode servers
Has anyone figured out how to avoid the timeout? I’m hosting on Amazon Web Services and getting the same problem. Would love to find a resolution.
In September 2019, Blizzard temporarily blocked some popular hosting services in an effort to mitigate a DDOS attack during the WoW Classic launch. This thread was created due to that action, which has since been rolled back.
