Is that actually coming from Cloudflare? iirc Cloudflare reports it self as Cloudflare not nginx in the 5xx error pages

The outage this morning manifested itself as a Nginx error page, somewhat unusually for CF.

correct, i saw that too. the outage returned 500/nginx. no version number either on footer. @jgrahamc thought that was strange too as few commenters last night were caught off guard trying to determine if it was their systems or cloudflare. supposedly its been forwarded along.

yes, there is definitely an nginx service in the path. We don't have any nginx in our infrastructure, but this was the response we had for our urls during the outage.

<html> <head><title>500 Internal Server Error</title></head> <body bgcolor="white"> <center><h1>500 Internal Server Error</h1></center> <hr><center>nginx</center> </body> </html>
