@muhuk Would you do some digging and check whether you might have exceeded the GitHub API rate limits? You should be able to run |
@kenny-evitt that's what I've seen when I visited the URL yesterday. Now I can see a list of tags.
I only had LT open and wasn't using |
It looks like it's running every five minutes:

Even tho that should only result in 12 requests an hour, the GitHub API restricts unauthenticated requests more strictly:
I'm guessing you – or you and others sharing your IP address – exceeded the rate limit before you opened LT. @cldwalker @rundis Should we decrease the frequency for which new versions are checked? Or maybe we need to host an LT-version service external to GitHub. Or maybe publish the latest version on the site and check that from within LT. |
@kenny-evitt Until we start releasing way more regularly, I think the frequency can be decreased significantly, maybe every hour... or even less frequent /configurable whether you want it at all. |
@kenny-evitt @rundis Decreasing the check to every hour sounds reasonable. Disabling the update behavior should be achievable by subtracting |
I'm the only one on this IP. But if it checks every hour and I still have this sort of problem that would definitely mean something else is using the API too. (I am not running anything that would though.) Should we close this now? |
@muhuk Yeah; close this for now. You can disable the new-version check for now. Or you can build from source now and it should only check once an hour. If anyone else has this problem, we can consider other workarounds or fixes. |
Thanks for the fix! |
I'm facing the same problem. But I have no idea where to disable the new version check from minutes to hours? |
@gdad-s-river There's nowhere to change the version-check frequency but the latest version (0.8.1) only checks once an hour instead of every five minutes. |
I see this error in my console:
There is also a javascript stacktrace and it is repeating itself.
Lighttable version 0.8.0-alpha, Binary version 0.31.1.
