- lutusp 13y agoUnfortunately, a 520 isn't a official HTTP error: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes Quote: "520 Origin Error (Cloudflare) ... This status code is not specified in any RFCs, but is used by Cloudflare's reverse proxies to signal an "unknown connection issue between CloudFlare and the origin web server" to a client in front of the proxy." Basically, the error (if it's a real error indication and not bogus) suggests an inability by the server to establish a connection with your system. Remember that HTTPS (HN's operating mode) signifies extra requirements for a legitimate connection (and a different port: 443 instead of 80), so there might be firewall issues at your workplace that aren't an issue at home.
- krstck 13y agoInteresting, thanks for the info. It seems to let me in for a little while then suddenly stop working, and it definitely doesn't let me log in. I would be totally unsurprised if it was a firewall issue here. Well, that's better news than HN intentionally kicking me out!
