I will randomly get this error in the Chat for the Build mode, and it will repeat if I keep trying to retry. I typically will wait 20/30 minutes and try again, but something on the UI saying “rate limit reached” or something related to the “why” if it’s a throttling situation.
There was an unexpected error. Finish what you were doing.
Hi @paradroid @latrack,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We truly appreciate you flagging this issue, we will file a bug internally. To help us with prioritization of this issue, can you please share the impact of this issue?
Thank you!
I’m also experiencing the same issue.
Happening to me now as well. One Moment it was working, now not a single input is taken - instantly getting the Error.
I waited for about 5 hours, and it allowed me to send a few messages to the AI before again throwing up errors just like before.
Edit: After checking the console it seems to be throwing up 429 errors (see attached screenshot)
It’s a full stop progress wise when it does happen. When I reported this initially, I actually was able to troubleshoot it directly. One of the JSON files I had added to a folder was too large, and I assume maxing out the context window, leading to the error. After removing the file, I was able to proceed.
Regardless, this error will still crop up in any long “session” with chat if it is not reset periodically. I actually shared a work around somewhere on the forums here where you copy/paste the last few messages from chat, reset the chat context, and paste it back in. In the cases where the model outputs the larger Updates Files text with the stated changes, but no actual changes happen (due to an error/issue with it’s XML output I believe), the above method works to continue making code changes as expected.
Good find! In my case it was actually an issue with a GIANT Json file I had added to a “docs” folder maxing out the context window for the assistant. Once it was removed, the error cleared (for a while at least).
