502 Bad Gateway Error
I'm experiencing intermittent "502 Bad Gateway" errors on my website hosted with 3rd party hosting provider , [abcd.com]. Specifically, the site initially loads with a 502 error message through Cloudflare, showing "Host Error." However, when I refresh the page, it loads correctly on the second attempt.
This behavior suggests a possible issue with the server’s responsiveness or configuration. Here are the details:
Error Timing: The 502 error appears only on the first load attempt, then resolves on reload.
Error Details: Cloudflare indicates that the "Browser" and "Cloudflare" components are working, but the "Host" (i.e., the server hosting the site) shows an error.

You may need to look into the host server for the logs or some crash or something blocking, etc. If you troubleshoot it's well else, contact your host. Since its intermittent, I'd suggest you to Pause Cloudflare on your site and see the response and then re-enable.

When troubleshooting most 5XX errors, the correct course of action is to first contact your hosting provider or site administrator to troubleshoot and gather data.
