Still getting this oneboxing 429 error. How can I troubleshoot this on my local installation? Is there a more verbose or detailed onebox log I can enable for study?
Thank you

That url doesn’t generate a one box here or on [try.discourse.org](http://try.discourse.org), so I’m not clear that there is a problem on your test box.
But if there is, it sounds like a connectivity issue.

I know, I didn’t mean I thought there was a problem locally. I meant I would like to debug the code or find out what Onebox is doing wrong.
But really, I’d like to be able to override the “Discourse” User Agent since I suspect that’s what’s getting blocked…
