Hi,
First time deploying a website here (and second time deploying a website at all), I’m still a bit unexperienced in deploying stuff but it’s very fun and I learn a lot.
I got a concern about my newly deployed website, which runs with RemixJS and a bit of ExpressJS.
When I looked on the live logs, I noticed there are a ton of request for random routes/files that don’t exist, everytime.
I understand it must be some bots, but am I the only one in this case, because I missed something in my configs? Should I really be worried about that matter?
I precise that there is no DB connection in my app, no sensitive data, but I’m still worried if I had it in the future.
I suspect that you may have a domain name that was used for something else in the past, this is why you still get those ghost requests for resources that are long gone. I am pretty sure this is the case given that “.htm” file extension was popular in 1990s-2000s.
Probably you can find some breadcrumbs with archive.org, or by searching for the page URLs your server is being requested for.
Thanks for your reply, that is correct.
Without going in details, it’s a “renewal” of a very old website and I don’t own the domain name. I used it to point to my website.
Again, should I be worried about it? What can I do to prevent it, in case it’s dangerous?
