We are doing signup with
https://mobileapi.punchh.com/api2/mobile/users
with punchh-app-device-id removed in header.
It was worked fine for very long time, but suddenly it is stopped working getting Too manu requests error. I've attached screenshot for reference.
we are having this issue on Kiosk(machine in restaurant, not belongs to particular user).
it happened in both production and sandbox environment
I ensured punchh-app-device-id is removed in header and tried again. I'm getting Too Many Requests error all the time.

I've developing an update to an existing Laravel System (currently running Laravel 6 and PHP7.4), that runs on both EC2 and Laravel Vapor Setups, and have run into some very strange issues that only present themselves on Vapor Setups. These issues relate to Cookie Generation Failing and POST Routes being ignored when handling Routes.
Issue #1: Cookies No Longer Being Set
The first issue presents itself immediately upon loading the system up for the first time, no cookies are being saved, even though our .env is configured to do so:
SESSION_DRIVER=cookie
Without Cookies being generated, forms can't be processed and users cannot be marked as authenticated.
The system itself has had no changes made to it in areas that would touch core logic around Cookies, but none are now being generated. If we revert the codebase to the previous release without these changes, the system runs perfectly on the Laravel Vapor Setup, but runs without issue using both version of the code on the EC2 Setup.
Potentially Related: Redirecting users seems to be being done with JavaScript on the problematic Vapor Setup, whilst EC2 and Local Development Environments are managing to do so using headers. This indicates there's an issue somewhere in the code that's being used, but the areas that manage that code, as mentioned a few times, haven't been touched during development.
Issue #2: POST Routes Being Ignored
This might be a run on from the first issue above.
POST Routes are being completely ignored from our web.php file. I've tried submitting forms, I've tried using Insomnia to make requests to them, and have even tried setting up a route that would catch requests to any route that was using the POST method, and in each case they were being completely ignored by the system.
Submitting our login forms leads to a strange error being output:
Call to a member function can() on null (View: /var/task/resources/views/core/main/parts/headermenu.blade.php) (View: /var/task/resources/views/core/main/parts/headermenu.blade.php) (View: /var/task/resources/views/core/main/parts/headermenu.blade.php) (View: /var/task/resources/views/core/main/parts/headermenu.blade.php)
This error is strange because it should only be displayed after a user is authenticated, but submitting any details to the system gets this output, even blank details. I'm not sure how the user ends up on an authenticated page, as the POST route that handled authentication is being ignored, so no authentication logic is ever being run. I can, at least, confirm that the system is able to connect to the database to run verification logic, but the route that does so is never accessed because of this issue.
Honestly, I'm coming up blank on solutions to both of these issues, but they're blocking progress with this feature. Any and all guidance on where to look, or how to resolve the above would be most greatly appreciated.
I have built a mobile app using React Native.
This app connects with a REST API I built using the Laravel framework.
This API is hosted on a VPS and served over HTTPS.
The mobile app works as intended where I expect it to, with the exception of the following use case:
A user has an iPhone 8+. This user’s carrier is AT&T. The 5Ge, to be specific.
This user can download the app and install it no problem.
When they open the app, the app connects to the API, and gets the data to display on the home screen.
The user can login, using their credentials, which are sent to the API, and the API returns an access token on a valid login.
Every subsequent request, is sent with an Authorization header: Bearer [token]
These requests specifically, never reach the server. All authenticated routes for the API are unreachable for this user.
Users on other networks, like Verizon and TMobile, do not have this issue.
The mobile app uses Axios library for sending HTTP requests.
A timeout of 25000 (maximum that can be sent on the iOS?) is passed as an option to the authenticated action. The action fails for this user.
The error is caught and then sent to a public route on the API, without an Authorization header in the request.
This request reaches the server and adds the error message from the request from the mobile app, to the error log on my server.
When I inspect the error that was thrown by the authenticated action failure, it reads “Network error” with a code of 0.
If the timeout is set lower, at 15000, the error thrown by the failed authenticated action is a timeout error, exceeded 15000.
I have contacted AT&T today, and they said we should contact Apple.
After they patched us through to Apple, Apple said issue sounds like it is a cell tower issue, and offered to run diagnostics on the phone.
My question is: Why are the requests that contain an Authorization header Bearer token not able to reach my server when the user is on the AT&T network. Is the bearer token making the request bulky and slowing down the request to where our towers aren’t able to send it?
Or does AT&T have some kind of middleware that would trash the request for some reason?
Could the Authorization header cause AT&T to handle the request differently and send it some other way and in this way could DNS errors cause the request to fail in this way.
Please help, I hope I have explained it well enough.
Edit: Laravel Passport generates access_token for the authenticated API that is 1000+ characters in length. It looks like I can reduce that by about half. I am going to try that next.
I'm finding this is resolved now.
I did two things. I reset my Laravel Passport keys with a specified --length of 1024.
This resulted in my access tokens being around 557 characters long instead of 1000+
I also made some DNS changes in my subdomain. A scan I did showed a nameserver parent mismatch error between the subdomain and parent domain. I made the changes and got those warnings to go away.
These are the things I did. My two app users who are with the AT&T network carrier tested the app tonight after I did these changes.
They logged in. Opened the timeclock. Clocked in. And that request made it to my server like it was supposed to, with the new shorter access token.
I don't know which one of those two things fixed this issue. But I would probably guess it was the DNS problems that I resolved. I still find it odd that the issue only occured on the AT&T network when with an Authorization token in the header of the request.
I'm kinda lost.
I see A LOT of TokenMismatchException exceptions in my production logs and all of them came from android devices (I log the useragent, ip, url and request method with every exception)
It's basically a simple landing page with form so I see no reason people might be on page for few hours (that'll cause session expiration). I also pass the XSEF-TOKEN cookie content using the X-XSRF-TOKEN header so this is shouldn't the problem
I tried using my iPhone and everything worked with: Safari (both private and regular modes), Chrome and Facebook inline browser
I also tried using my girlfriend's LG G4 using Chrome, Built in android browser and Facebook inline browser and it worked as well.
I temporarily disabled the csrf middleware for this specific route so people won't get errors but this can be really bad. So what should I do next?
I'm using Laravel 5.2, sessions driver is file (cannot do redis from the server the client gave me) and the sessions directory is writable. Lots of sessions are in the directory so this is not a permissions problem. PHP version is 6.5.18.
Thanks !
App was developed in Web API. We are using AntiForgery Token validation for all the POST calls in xyz.com. Registered xyz.com users get email alerts for the contents they are signed up for. Users click item from email to view the content details. On click of item first click event is being saved in SilverPop and silverpop redirects to actual content in xyz.com. Details page is being loaded with out any issues after authenticating the user based on few query string parameters. Issue is when user make a post call(to saving for later, book mark etc) App is throwing Antiforgery token mismatch error. Sorry for bad English and long question. Strange part of this issue is We are unable to replicate this error and its not occurring consistently. We have two server and 1 load balance hosted in AWS not using sticky session enabled. Using Forms cookie authentication. finally, this issue kept occurring though we run with 1 server. Thanks for reading and appreciate if any one could help.
*User must be Authenticated to validate CSRF token ? This xyz.com makes few api get and post calls.
I have a simple google places library implementation.
var place_service = new google.maps.places.PlacesService(map);
place_service.search(request, place_callback);
It stops working if the browser (Chrome) is left open for several days, untouched. Upon trying the next search, I get 403 error from the library search call.
Unable to authenticate the supplied URL. Please check your client and signature parameters.
Here is the captured request URL:
Closing browser and restarting fixes.
Also have a mobile HTML mobile app (iOS, Android) with same implementation. The apps places functionality also stops working after several days. App must be killed and restarted to fix.
Something seems to be expiring?
This is normal behaviour, the token parameter in the request can expire after as little as a few hours. I would recommend issuing a page refresh when the user returns if the page or app has been dormant for more than a few hours.
