Hi,
Currently experiencing some inconsistent behaviour with the API in which
fetching via the browser gives a response,
but my own app ('MapThePaths', part of a project intended to help map footpaths
and edit designation tags in the UK) frequently hangs waiting for a response.
MapThePaths uses the osmapi (Tobias Zwick) to fetch data.
Is there any reason currently why the API might be responding to standard web
browsers but not custom apps?
FWIW my app should be reporting itself as "MapThePaths Android app" and I have
just (around 16:35-16:40 UK time) made three unsuccessful requests with the
bbox:
-0.7295872761598865,51.09355911139382,-0.7005316007485753,51.11122494429744.
Sometimes, however, my app is retrieving data from OSM successfully (perhaps
60-70% of the time).
No exception is thrown - just looks like a timeout.
I also observed similar behaviour 'in the field' yesterday afternoon when I was
using the app in the countryside. The app could talk to my own API on
mapthepaths.org.uk successfully but could not communicate with the OSM API.
Is this simply related to the issues with the OSM API at the moment related to
moving to another server?
Thanks,
Nick
