502 Bad Gateway

1. 94

   melbelposted 10 years ago

   I experienced this a few moments ago only on HubPages and only while logged in. When I cleared cookies and came back to HubPages it was fine until I tried to log in. No other sites appeared to be affected, so I'm thinking it wasn't my ISP. (Although I have Comcast and they are fun to blame.)
   
   (I'm obviously fine now, though, just wanted to let you guys know.)

      I got that trying to check this forum. It's been hit or miss. I use SAT internet cuz I live in the boonies, so I thought that may have been the problem. Good to see it's not my ISP.

   I got it within the last fifteen minutes too.  Also, I haven't been able to get replies to comments and forum replies to "go" either.  They just keep coming up with a "problem" window that says it didn't go through.  Sometimes it really did.  Sometimes it didn't.

   I've had it happening to me all day. It was OK at first this morning. However, I wrote a lovely hub, clicked save and I got "sorry we have encountered a problem" type message. Lost everything I had been doing, even the bits before the final splurge of writing! WAS NOT A HAPPY LAD!!
   
   Since then I have had the bad gateway message many many many times. Have given up with Hubpages today! See you all tomorrow ... I'm really hoping the hub will be saved/restored, but have a strong feeling it is gone for good.
   
   
   edit:
   Now having the gateway problem while just trying to post this message. Seems they are having serious issues today.

      What browser are you folks using? I was using Chrome all day and no problems (just a little slow at times), even on HP. I switched to a different computer in the evening that used iexplorer and then I was getting problems from the start. It could just be the browser we're using.
      
      You know what they say... Internet Explorer: The #1 Browser... for downloading a better browser.

   I'm using the latest version of Firefox, and I'm getting the same thing.  I can see the forums and read Hubs - the problem only seems to happen when I try to look at Hubber profiles, and even then it's inconsistent.

    I was checking in from my iPod Touch last night to see if I had any comments to approve when suddenly I lost HP. I tried to log back in and it kept refusing as if I was using the wrong password. I just gave up since it was around 2AM and time to sleep.

    This morning everything was fine and then I saw this forum thread. The first post was around the time I was checking in. So it must have been a glitch, either with the DNS through the Internet or with HP's server itself.

    502 bad gateway means a proxy server is down or refusing to connect for some reason or other.  It really is not your computer that is at fault, though it is good to clear your cookies and cache from time to time.

    I am also repeatedly getting the bad gateway message pop up - at random times, and usually when I try again it works okay. Also today while working on a hub I have had repeated errors - sometimes it’s not saving edits and other times it doesn’t load a capsule. Both times a second or third attempt has been successful.
