My website's web application logs are showing a large number of errors with this code (over 14k yesterday alone):
12 other error
From this page:
http://www.geonames.org/export/webservice-exception.html
The problem is that there's no details as to what this error entails. As a reminder here are all the codes:
Code:
Error Code Description
10 Authorization Exception
11 record does not exist
12 other error
13 database timeout
14 invalid parameter
15 no result found
16 duplicate exception
17 postal code not found
18 daily limit of credits exceeded
19 hourly limit of credits exceeded
20 weekly limit of credits exceeded
21 invalid input
22 server overloaded exception
23 service not implemented
So it's not a limit exception, but that doesn't help me figure out why this is happening. Can anyone offer insight into what's going on? A quick check of the pages using GeoNames makes it seem like ALL my requests are returning this error.
