 * Hey [@triptop](https://wordpress.org/support/users/triptop/),
 * Thanks for the feedback! There are a few items in the FAQ that may provide a 
   solution to this issue, this one may get you going.
 *     – What can I try for 502/503/504 Gateway issues during the scan/build?

 * We had (and still have) the same issue, its not related to proxy issues but duplicator
   failing to progress to step 2 in the installation routine.
 * We narrowed it down to the point where after unzipping and changing permissions
   the installer would progress to step 2, but after the redirect and check of status
   file he thinks step 1 was not completed.
 * Actually, when this is done the first time, the step 1 never “really” completed,
   it is stuck showing a progress bar (that is when the proxy just says 50x Gateway
   error cause the response times out). Looking at the logs, it says step 1 complete
   so it must be some problem with the postback in step1.
 * I’ve seen similar issues reported here, for us the issue appeared after upgrading
   WP to 5.x and upgrading Duplicator to latest.

 * Hey [@v7cnf3uhbhwcfwhq](https://wordpress.org/support/users/v7cnf3uhbhwcfwhq/),
 * Gateway errors are issued by the web server, the plugin really has no control
   over those status codes. We have success on hundreds of hosts so its most likely
   something isolated to the server. If you want to submit a [support ticket](https://snapcreek.com/ticket)
   for this issue we can have a closer look at your setup. Please provide a link
   to this thread when submitting the ticket.
 * Thanks~

 * [@corylamleorg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/corylamleorg/),
 * you are right the error itself is a response from the reverse proxy after the
   apache does not respond within the configured timeout. This is just the symptom
   of the actual issue. I could have responded to one of the other threads saying“
   gets stuck after step 1″… would have been more clear I guess.
 * I’ll file a ticket then, thanks.

 * Hello
    Any hope, you will enhance the plugin ? In that case, It would be more
   than welcome to notify me. I bank on you because my provider does not want to
   help me at all. Thanks

 * Sorry, but on our side it was not Duplicator related!
