Hi, are you deploying Whoogle or using any of the available public instances?

Yes, of course, installed but only to some friends and myself in a limited server

Because your server is beeing shared between you and your friends, it's probably generating lots of requests from the same IP address and this may lead to a rate-limited instance.

I would say that any instance should be able to handle "big groups" (that's why public instances are for) but I'm sorry to say that I can't help you solving this problem because I'm not sure how could I do it.

Thank you anyway.

You could try

WHOOGLE_CONFIG_COUNTRY = ""
WHOOGLE_CONFIG_LANGUAGE = "lang_en"

No, it doesn't work. I suppose Google has to take part on it.
Thanks

I ran into the same issue on replit. Stopped that instance and spun a new one, all good now.

I did it in the same domain but different subdomain and the result is the same: not working.
I think Google block my IP or entire domain.

A potential fix has been pushed for #558, which is the same issue as this one. Some users have experienced increased rate-limiting when the country param is set (which it previously was set by default). The default value has been removed, and the param will no longer be sent.

This may or may not be related to your issue. Ultimately getting ratelimited isn't really something Whoogle can help with, since there's an enormous number of possibilities for getting blocked. I can address issues like the country param one, but that'll never be a guarantee that you won't get ratelimited.
