Continually getting HTTP Error 502 messages
-
As in the header. It only ever occurs on this site, not on any other torrents site. I can load the pages which tell me that there are numerous uploaders and downloaders. I just can't seem to establish any connection. All that I get is HTTP Error 502 messages. What does that mean, and how might I rectify it? All assistance will be greatly appreciated! This has only been happening the last 2 days. I have not made any changes to UTorrent's configuration.

It's a hiccup with the tracker. Do nothing. It will sort itself out from that end eventually

I had same/similar issue. It got so bad that I sat up and took notice when I was doing an initial seed on a torrent. I will normally start the seed and try to forget about it for an hour then check on the activity. I came back and there were 6 leechers listed on the site, zero activity on my client. I remember thinking "This is ridiculous, I can be the only one seeding." I did the manual 'ask tracker for more peers' and then bam I had 5 leechers. Next day I check out the activity again and good news there had been a flurry of it but unfortunately my ratio did not reflect the flurry. Checked my client and I had just uploaded the barest of minimum of the file so that others got the full file and the "flurry" of delicious ratio boosting.
I investigated further, there had to be something else holding me back or why were others able to share in such abundance that which I had unleashed.
Turned out when I had a little issue my Apple TV I had made gone into my router settings, set up a static something or other and forgotten about the port forward rules. Not forgotten, just didn't realize what I had done would have an effect. Fortunately I did figure it out and then with a little selective free leeching of torrents I am back on track with ratio.
Moral of the story is: you can take a horse to water but it doesn't mean the monkey is going to type out Shakespeare. I think.

Thanks, cannonc. You were absolutely correct and the problem has now remedied itself.
