Errors

Too many download links — try again later

Create download link / grant mint hit the per-IP or per-file rate limit.

Too many download links — try again later

Minting temporary download grants was rate-limited for this IP and/or file (429).

Why this happens

download_grant_rate_ip and download_grant_rate_file (defaults often ~40/IP and ~80/file per 10 minutes). Failed attempts can still count. If nginx edge grant rate is enabled, the gateway may enforce instead of the app.

Diagnose and fix

1. Visitor: wait, then Create download link again (avoid hammering refresh).

2. Admin: Settings → Files → Grant rate limit per IP/file — raise if legitimate traffic needs more.

3. Check reverse-proxy client IP accuracy.

4. Password verify uses a related bucket — see Too many attempts.
