    Trying to stop my web server getting overloaded, I reduced the number of concurrent connections and started seeing this error.

    ```
    Jun 15 02:49:06 bbs synchronet: web 0011 HTTPS [47.186.31.122] !Maximum concurrent connections (5) exceeded
    Jun 15 02:49:06 bbs synchronet: web 0011 HTTPS [47.186.31.122] !ERROR: 429 Too Many Requests (line 6949) request:
    Jun 15 02:49:06 bbs synchronet: web 0011 HTTPS [47.186.31.122] Request resolved to: /sbbs/webv4/root/error/429.html

    ```

    Of course. the file exists.
    bbs@bbs:/sbbs$ ls -l /sbbs/webv4/root/error/429.html

    This appears to always happen when attempting to send an error 429 over HTTPS.
