I get these errors frequently, sometimes after a short round of actions and sometimes after a long one

You’re experiencing frequent errors on Google AI Developers Forum, sometimes after a short or long sequence of actions. This issue might be related to the specific API or service you’re using, or potentially a temporary glitch.
To troubleshoot, you could try:
- *Checking API Limits*: Ensure you’re not exceeding the allowed request limits.
- *Error Handling*: Implement robust error handling to catch and manage errors gracefully.
- *Forum Support*: Reach out to the Google AI Developers Forum support team for more specific guidance.
Have you tried any troubleshooting steps already?
Typically, if I exceed my quota, I’ll get an error that specifically tells me that I exceeded my daily quota
The generic “unknown error occurred” errors happen randomly. Sometimes I can bypass them by prompting “continue”, which will get a meaningful response out of the agent. Other times, after prompting “continue”, it will appear to think indefinitely, in which case I lose my patience and use Roo Code instead, but generally speaking, I do prefer GCA as it’s more robust in my experience, plus the grounding feature is a killer feature for me
The same problem gives you the freedom of choice due to the reduced use by Google because after only 3 days then the same problem returns
Turns out that sometimes the “quota exceeded” error cannot be properly displayed in the UI and thus It will also result in an “unknown error occurred” message
The “unknown error occurred” message is displayed a brief second later
Huh, that’s strange, occurred out of the blue
Funny enough, I prompted “retry”, VSCode politely asked me to reopen the window as GCA’s panel became unresponsive and I did, then I pulled the latest chat from the chat history, prompetd “retry”, and it just keeps going as if the error never occurred
I believe that the reason it was able to keep going is that I haven’t exceeded yet my daily Gemini 2.5 Pro quota
same situation, does this bug fixed ?
Despite receiving an update for the extension, I tried to use it, worked for a minute or two and then I got the error, so I guess the answer is no
The thing is that Gemini CLI handles errors much better, it doesn’t remove the response content but instead it appends the server error to the end
here are website gemini tell me the my error causes, so it is google remote cloud server reject my request maybe :it is concern about the project name ,however, i don’t know how to how to rename the project and it may not the real reason:How to Fix It
You need to enable the API and add the correct IAM (Identity and Access Management) role to your user account in the Google Cloud Console.
-
Go to the Google Cloud Console:
-
Open your web browser and go to the Google Cloud Console.
-
Make sure you are logged in with the same Google account you use for VS Code.
-
-
Select the Correct Project:
-
At the top of the page, click the project selector.
-
Find and select the project mentioned in the error:
eminent-veld-2k0xs.
-
-
Enable the Cloud AI Companion API:
-
Use the search bar at the top of the console and search for “Cloud AI Companion API”.
-
Click on it and then click the ENABLE button if it’s not already enabled.
-
-
Grant the Required IAM Permission:
-
Use the search bar to navigate to the IAM & Admin page.
-
On the IAM page, find your user account in the list of “Principals”.
-
Click the pencil icon (Edit principal) next to your user account.
-
Click ADD ANOTHER ROLE.
-
In the “Select a role” filter, type
Cloud AI Companion Userand select it from the list. * Click SAVE.
-
-
Restart and Retry:
-
Close and reopen VS Code to make sure it picks up the new permissions.
-
Try using the Gemini assistant again. It should now work.
-
Note: IAM changes can sometimes take a minute or two to take effect. If it doesn’t work immediately, wait a couple of minutes and try agai
