unable to process your request in a timely manner 2007/05/22 06:43 Karma: 0  
My site seems to set up fine and initailly I'm able to look at the products on my page but some times I get an error message.

Sorry, we are currently unable to process your request in a timely manner. Please try amazon.com

Please tell me why this takes place.

Amazon is taking too long to respond and send the xml data that the script relies on.

Because APF cannot get the data in a timely manner it invites the visitor to go to Amazon - following your associates link of course (so you still get credit for any sales).

Hope that helps.

Thank you Dean

Is there anything else that I can do to change this, does'nt amazon relay information to all its associates in the same timely manner or is their something I may request or change in the apf configurations?
I fear that the clients will move to a different store front if that error occurs.

PS once I get the site to operate properly cna I modify a color change to mrats css file

Well - MrRat's script makes up to three attempts to retrieve the info. It is possible that networking / firewall issues with your host could be implicated.

You may want to check with your hosts to ensure they are not blocking or 'throttling' inbound data.

I must confess that for the last few days I have been seeing an increased number of these failed connections - presumably the issue is at Amazon's end. You could contact (or try to contact) Amazon via their associates forums.

The error message presented is the best that MrRat could come up with - it explains the problem, offers a link to Amazon AND embeds your associates ID.
