Hello everybody,
since yesterday afternoon there are 520 error messages from Cloudflare in our forum. The error occurs completely randomly and everywhere. We only moved to a new server a few weeks ago and everything went perfectly. I will of course also contact my hoster. But I have already researched and noticed that this error can often not be localized and corrected immediately and clearly. That is why I also include you and XF in this problem, in the hope that bright people will be found here who might be able to contribute to a solution.
Error messages / problems:
I made the following changes in .htaccess almost ten days ago:
Furthermore, I activated OPCache with php.ini, also around ten days ago.
A week ago I did "Rebuild Threads" and "Rebuild Cache" in order to be able to use an addon from @Xon ("Who Replied") correctly. During Rebuild Cache (over 3 million posts), only a blank page appeared in the ACP after around 2.5 million posts. After a refresh, however, it continued and the process was successfully completed. I will just mention this once, as there could possibly be a connection here.
Other addons that I use:
Finally, there may be the option of a DDOS attack. Maybe it's just a coincidence, but two days ago we temporarily banned a member. At least I couldn't completely rule out a connection to the current problems.
I look forward to every well-intentioned suggestion. Thank you in advance.
