If you see a 502 error, first check Cloudflare's status page for widespread outages. If Cloudflare is operational, try clearing your browser's cache and cookies. Next, determine if the error occurs on all websites using Cloudflare or only a specific one. Check your server logs for errors that may be triggering the 502 error. Contact the website owner or your hosting provider for assistance.
