What is the issue you’re encountering

Hi there. I use Wordfence to help protect my WordPress website from malware. Wordfence’s customer support is attempting to scan my website for malware. However, it continues to be interrupted. I was told, “some attempts to run a scan fail. I noticed that periodically Wordfence > Tools > Diagnostics > Connectivity shows an error 409 Conflict for Connecting back to this site, with detail including “wp_remote_post test back to this server”. This is only intermittent and appears to be caused by Cloudflare. “ Can you tell me why I might be getting intermittent interruptions? This is very important to resolve.

Hi @news2

I suggest you review your security events and try to find what might be causing the issue you are reporting.
