Published

Following the released of the names of shortlisted candidates for the 2023/2024 recruitment into the Nigeria Police Force, applicants are finding it difficult to access the portal of the police service commission.

IDOMA VOICE reports that the site is currently offline with only 502 Bad Gateway welcoming guests.

Here are what you need to know about 502 Bad Gateway.

“502 Bad Gateway” is an HTTP status code indicating that the server acting as a gateway (usually a reverse proxy or load balancer) received an invalid response from the upstream server.

Nginx (pronounced “engine-x”) is a popular web server software that often serves as a reverse proxy or load balancer.

When you see “502 Bad Gateway – nginx” in your browser, it typically means that:

– The web server (nginx) acted as a gateway to a backend server.
– The backend server returned an invalid or malformed response.
– Nginx couldn’t process the response and returned a 502 error instead.

Common causes include:

– Server overload or high latency
– Misconfigured backend servers
– Network connectivity issues
– Server maintenance or downtime
