403 on connecting to http://bot.notenoughmods.com/1.7.10.json

[bseiller]

Hi there,

as stated there seems to be a problem with the connection to the json url during startup. Switched to https by rebuilding from scratch - same result. Is there a new rule blocking certain agents? Since in the browser it just works fine, also I don't think the 1.7.10 should be a problem.

If I can help with the troubleshooting just let me know.

Edit: Just checked - it seems the 16th of February was the first time this happened.

stacktrace as follows:
