Error 20 and Error 520
-
Hello,
This is becoming a major issue, and it’s starting to happen every day. I am getting “Connection Failed – Error 20 – What happened? The proxy failed to connect to the web server, due to TCP connection timeout.”
And
“Error 520 Web server is returning an unknown error”
Both of these occur at generally the same time when I’m working on my site. Why does this happen? How can I fix it so it never happens again?

Hi, your site doesn’t seem to be hosted with us, but I believe these may be errors from Cloudflare:

Good luck!

Hi @ebuchinger16, it sounds like you use the free WordPress software with your hosting provider:
