Python aiohttp "[Errno 104] Connection reset by peer" on Roblox domains

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
1

I’m trying to make requests to the Roblox cloud API (UserRestrictions) in Python using the aiohttp library. My code was working perfectly until today when it suddenly stopped with no changes to the environment.

The error in question is aiohttp.client_exceptions.ClientOSError: [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer. I made a test script to see if it was related to the headers I was using, but it seems to be affecting requests to any roblox.com domain. I’ve restarted the system (ubuntu 24.04) numerous times, cleared the DNS cache and reinstalled the packages, but the issue persists. Running curl https://apis.roblox.com/ works completely fine, so I don’t think it’s a rate limit.

I’m unable to replicate this error on other systems.

import asyncio, aiohttp

async def run():
    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as Session:
        Request = await Session.get("https://google.com/") # Doesn't error

        print(await Request.text())    

        Request = await Session.get("https://apis.roblox.com/") # Does error

        print(await Request.text())    

asyncio.run(run())

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

ANY help will be HEAVILY appreciated. If Roblox Devforum isn’t exactly the right place to post this, please point me in the right direction. I’ve been at this for multiple hours🙏

Does it happen with the requests library?

Yes, it works with requests. However, this is for a discord.py bot, so I need an async HTTP library.

Can you put the requesting code into asyncio.to_thread and use requests with that? Or make it threaded in any other way

About the aiohttp errors you could try using a VPN, I tried your sample code on Arch and it worked fine

This isnt right fully, try again later.

Same issue here, looking for a solution

As of today, I was able to fix it by adding this code.

import asyncio, aiohttp, ssl
ssl_context = ssl.create_default_context()

async def run():
    aiohttp.TCPConnector.__init__.__kwdefaults__["ssl"] = ssl_context # Fix

    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as Session:
        Request = await Session.get("https://apis.roblox.com/")

        print(await Request.text())    

asyncio.run(run())
