Hello Community Members!
I was trying to post an answer on the community and when I tried submitting it, I got the following error message:
Has anyone else run into this error before? I’d appreciate it if someone could explain the root cause and how to fix it, as this is preventing me from posting my answers.
Thanks in advance for your help!
It means the server is overloaded. The server is overloaded because Shopify hosts their service on a Raspberry Pi.
I’m experiencing the same issue. What a mess.
Hello Community Members!
UPDATE: The error was automatically resolved after a few minutes.
However, I wanted to understand the root cause and how to prevent it in the future, so I reached out to Shopify Support. In my case, the error occurred because I attempted to post multiple answers within a short time frame, which triggered the flood limit. The limit was automatically reset after a specific period, allowing me to post again.
For more details on why this error happens and how to resolve it, you can read the full response from Shopify Support here: Shopify Flood Limit Error
I hope this helps anyone who encounters this issue in the future!
Cheers,
