Bad Gateway

[Former Community Member]

when i'm trying to hit the site URL it taking time and showing that "Bad Gateway". Is it because of server error or the configuration changes.

Check if your web server is down...

Hi

Please have a look at this link:-

HTTP Error 502 Bad gateway

Introduction

A server (not necessarily a Web server) is acting as a gateway or proxy to fulfil the request by the client (e.g. your Web browser or our CheckUpDown robot) to access the requested URL. This server received an invalid response from an upstream server it accessed to fulfil the request.

This usually does not mean that the upstream server is down (no response to the gateway/proxy), but rather that the upstream server and the gateway/proxy do not agree on the protocol for exchanging data. Given that Internet protocols are quite clear, it often means that one or both machines have been incorrectly or incompletely programmed.

Fixing 502 errors - general

This problem is due to poor IP communication between back-end computers, possibly including the Web server at the site you are trying to visit. Before analysing this problem, you should clear your browser cache completely.

If you are surfing the Web and see this problem for all Web sites you try to visit, then either 1) your ISP has a major equipment failure/overload or 2) there is something wrong with your internal Internet connection e.g. your firewall is not functioning correctly. In the first case, only your ISP can help you. In the second case, you need to fix whatever it is that is preventing you reaching the Internet.

If you get this problem for only some of the Web sites you try to visit then it is likely to be a problem at those sites i.e. one of their pieces of equipment is failing/overloaded. Contact the people at those sites.

I hope this would help you.

Thanks and Regards

which means that there is some pbm with the one of the server response. Mostly it would be a temporary issue at that moment. Need more details on when you are getting this error 

Is is while accessing AEM instance ?

Are you integrating your application with any other external system via HTTP ?

Try reloading, clearing cache or restarting your instance and see if it fixes the issue.
