All query's return fail

[shlomo20]

hi,
it seems that a bug or something else has caused your API to always return with "Status" : failed.

examples:
https://weatherdbi.herokuapp.com/data/weather/brooklyn
https://weatherdbi.herokuapp.com/data/weather/miami
{
"status": "fail",
"message": "invalid query",
"query": "brooklyn", // or "miami"
"code": 0,
"visit": "https://weatherdbi.herokuapp.com/documentation/v1"
}

can you please look into this
thank you

Checked just now. Working...

It will be great if you can mention the time (keep in mind time zone) when this happened.

thank for the quick response.

yes, it is working now .....

the error's happened on 06/15/2022 around 7:25 AM Eastern Daylight Time zone (in New York, NY)

thanks for looking into this and maintaining such a good API for free.

There are one or two exceptions that occur during the period of high rate of requests to the API like in this case. These unhandled exceptions returns a "invalid query" response. But this can be a server side error. The error handling will be improved soon.

I am working on some major features, which will be rolled out once most of them are ready. This also includes better error handling.

Thanks for informing about the incident.
