I’m fairly sure I’ve had that same error message on a Rails/Discourse site before (I thought it was a DDOS too) - but it was because the proxy wasn’t configured properly :confused:

I use HAProxy, but something like the following might be worth looking into for nginx:

proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

Pearson / InformIT has a Labor day sale (now through September 15), buy 2, save 50% with code

LD2019

I mention this because it is possible to preorder:

The Pragmatic Programmer: your journey to mastery, 20th Anniversary Edition, 2nd Edition

(pragprog can’t give a discount on this one)

So if there is another eBook on the site that is worth considering, like Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code, 2nd Edition, it may be worth a look.

Typically InformIT sales discounts don’t exceed 40% when they apply to the purchase of a single eBook - that type of sale I expect to happen next time around Black Friday / Cyber Monday (Nov 29 / Dec 2).
