"unable to connect to remote server" when updating library - rlbond86 - 2019-03-03

This message keeps popping up when I perform a library update. It's very frustrating because it doesn't give any details! I selected "no" when it asked if I wanted to continue. The log file is at ukiyaneyik (paste). Can anyone tell me how to fix this issue?

Seems like the the https://webservice.fanart.tv website was unavailable to you.
It works from my end. Try again or check/change your DNS server(s).

I removed fanart.tv from the source but still get an error: http://paste.kodi.tv/uhihadaton

Looks  like api.themoviedb.org gave error 429?

Perhaps you are a bit too active updating your media collection:
