We are being denied access to multiple domains by Cloudflare
What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?
Reached out to domain owners. Did tracert and pulled wireshark report. WS shows cloudflare sending our traffic to a blocked page. "With the Wireshark packet it seems the connection is being directed by Cloudflare to a blockpage and not going any further, hxxp://10.40.99.30:15871/cgi-bin/blockpage.cgi?ws-session=218192842. "
How do we reach someone at Clouldflare to get them to allow our traffic to get to the site?
Thank you
Reached out with question here, was told to use ‘tools’ but no explanation and the thread was locked so couldn’t ask that follow up question.
Suddenly several business partners site are giving us 403 Forbidden. I asked for help with this and was told to use cloudflare tools, but no mention of where or how. So I am asking, can someone please share where, what and how to use the tools, to get us back to work.
Thank you
You should be able to see the challenged or blocked event under the Security tab → Events at Cloudflare dashboard for your zone and know exactly which security option was triggered.
Once you find them, click on a particular one to find more details about it (user-agent, IP, HTTP version …). If yes, could you share some details which service was triggered that blocked you?
Otherwise, If you get this error while visiting someone else’s website, I am afraid you cannot do anything. You can try to access it using a VPN or over a TOR, but I do not guarantee because it could also be blocked and restricted.
Obviously the website owner is using Cloudflare and security options available to him to protect his website.
Maybe you have had some bad requests, or the owner decided to deny the requests comming from your country, etc.
The site can block for any number of reason, that’s up to them and not something this Community nor Cloudflare can do anything about.
