522 Error: Domain hosted on Afrihost

[eric61]

Hey guys,

I am using Cloudflare for a .co.za domain hosted on Afrihost. It’s working okay but I often get a 522 error.

My registrar has whitelisted the Cloudflare IP addresses, I have disabled load always over https and it is set to full proxy.

I am out of ideas on how to fix. Any advice?

Thanks!

Before moving to Cloudflare, was your Website working over HTTPS connection?

May I ask what SSL option have you got selected under the SSL/TLS tab at Cloudflare dashboard for your domain ( Flexible, Full, Full Strict … )?
