I investigated further. The "Unexpected error: please retry later" message is generated by the DB web application, not by Whois. The DB web application calls Whois to perform the update with a 1 minute request timeout. I found that twice when you updated a domain object around 08:15 UTC, Whois took just over a minute each time to respond. For domain object updates, Whois calls the Zonemaster DNS check service (https://zonemaster.ripe.net/), which can take some time. I propose that we fix this by making the request timeout longer in the DB web application (say 5 minutes). > > the update did go through and was updated! Weird. > The Whois update request still succeeded because the DB application gives up after a minute, but the Whois update will continue even if the client HTTP request is interrupted (closed). Thanks Hank for reporting this issue.
