504 Gateway Timeout
I got 504 Gateway Timeout error for 2-3 URLs, but that was also not consistent. so what is the cause of this ? is it server issue?
Most likely it is a server issue. The BIG-IP will not send HTTP and HTTP response codes in case something is wrong with the backend or with the config.
You can easily take a tcpdump on the BIG-IP and trace under which condition the backend server sends the 504 HTTP status.
so normally what is the cause of this response code ? does this due to The application takes longer to respond than the configured idle timeout?
So do I have to check anything from server side?
for bigip i will try tcpdump and will check the logs.
Thanks in advance.
