Can't create dynamic page with external database due to connection errors?

Hey guys,

I’ve got a PostgreSQL-Instance running in the Azure cloud with around 500.000 datasets, and I wanted to connect that to wix in order to create dynamic web-pages where I could present those datasets. Now, for the connection between wix and my database, I’ve written API-Endpoints with django as described here ( https://www.wix.com/velo/reference/spis/external-database-collections/external-database-collections ).

Connecting the database as an external collection works just fine. I even have no problem with inserting new information, updating data, etc. - everything is working as intended.

Now, when I try to create a dynamic page with that external collection, wix always stops midway the creation, stating the follwing: “connection error. There is a temporary disturbance in our systems. Reload this page and try again. Please contact support if this error doesn’t go away.” (my error is in german, but picture below)

I’ve tried multiple web browsers, checked that no cookies or javascript is blocked. Honestly, I have no idea what might be wrong here. Can anyone help?

Do you have any log on your end? It is your issue.

Alternatively, router page also can do dynamic page(not the best approach)

Hey, sorry for the late answer. Shown below is a picture of the consol. I’ve started the console after everything in the editor was loaded, and did the following steps:

  1. Deleted the external connection

  2. Re-established the connection to the external db (no errors)

  3. tried to create a dynamic page.

As it can be seen, the error seems to be somewhat random. The 429-error isn’t from my server, but from wix (although I have no idea what kind of resources wix wants to load there).

Upon further inspection, I noticed the console always gives me that [Violation] Warning, stating that requestAnimationFrame took xx ms. Does that have anything to do with - well - anything?
