Max retries exceeded with URL in requests

What happened here is that itunes server refuses your connection (you’re sending too many requests from same ip address in short period of time)

Max retries exceeded with url: /in/app/adobe-reader/id469337564?mt=8

error trace is misleading it should be something like “No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it”.

There is an issue at about python.requests lib at Github, check it out here

To overcome this issue (not so much an issue as it is misleading debug trace) you should catch connection related exceptions like so:

try:
    page1 = requests.get(ap)
except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError:
    r.status_code = "Connection refused"

Another way to overcome this problem is if you use enough time gap to send requests to server this can be achieved by sleep(timeinsec) function in python (don’t forget to import sleep)

from time import sleep

All in all requests is awesome python lib, hope that solves your problem.
