Google reports server connectivity issues starting on Saturday Feb 15th and going as far up as 26%?

Do you have some example items I can take a look at. A specific page would be helpful if possible, as I can then take a look at that directly

I can't find a way to determine which specific pages are responsible. What's concerning is that this issue clearly started on February 15th, wasn't occurring before, and has been worsening since— as shown in the graph.

Without more information here it would be hard to investigate what is happening. Unfamiliar with the chart you're showing, it is also hard to give guidance here. If you're able to get the specific URL or even user agent, we can certainly look into this further.

It's a chart that appears in my Google Search Console.

First when I log in, on the main page, I see the following warning:

When I click "Check host status" it takes me to the chart I shared earlier.

I don't see any additional information.

@David N. In webmaster tools, if you go to settings and then crawl stats, there's a crawl error report in there. You should be able to get some error reasons and URLs from that.

I have the same yet going into settings and crawl stats but there is no crawl error reports.

Ah, silly me. If I opened server errors. Came up with this. I’m wondering @Marc @Jim M could this be related to the other topic with regards to mobile errors? It’s the same dates that’s all.

Thank you @Day. I get the same as you....

... and when I click any of these, I get:

I'd not worry about those - they're just a cloudflare thing, not related to your community itself.

Its always possible I guess, but I would think unlikely. Looking at what you have there, it looks like there was only 1 instance related to the software, unless you are seeing any on other pages?

I realise that still needs looking at by the way. Just checking if there are any others on your sites pages itself

Disallow using robots.txt

/cdn-cgi/ also can cause issues with various web crawlers.

Search engine crawlers can encounter errors when crawling these endpoints and — though these errors do not impact site rankings — they may surface in your webmaster dashboard.

SEO and other web crawlers may also mistakenly crawl these endpoints, thinking that they are part of your site's content.

As a best practice, update your robots.txt file to include Disallow: /cdn-cgi/.

Yes, a few. I'll send you the URLs by PM.

I've flagged our developers to see if they can shed any light on this. I'm not seeing them in cloudflare, so doesnt seem to be that causing the problem.

Thank you!

It's nothing to worry about, it's just Cloudflare, however we will make sure that URL is excluded by the default robots.txt in the next release.

All sites now have a disallow added to robots.txt to resolve this.
