If you are getting an upstream connect error in ChatGPT, then you are experiencing a gateway timeout error. Let’s learn how to fix it.
If you are getting Red Error Message Box while using ChatGPT, with error message:
“Upstream connect error or disconnect/reset before headers. Reset reason: remote connection failure, transport failure reason: delayed connect error: 111.”
As we clear it is a gateway time-out error by ChatGPT side. Let’s learn what it is and what you can do.
What Causes This Error?
The error Upstream Connect Error occurs in your ChatGPT due to a server-side connectivity problem with OpenAI’s systems. It usually means that ChatGPT’s servers failed to establish a connection, possibly due to high traffic, server maintenance, or an outage. Since this is a backend issue, there is nothing wrong with your internet connection or device.
How to Fix the ChatGPT Gateway Timeout Error
1. Check OpenAI’s Server Status
The first and most important step is to verify whether OpenAI’s servers are experiencing downtime.
To check the status of Chatgpt visit this OpenAI’s status page. This page provides real-time updates on any ongoing outages or maintenance activities affecting ChatGPT.
If OpenAI’s servers are down, you will need to wait until they resolve the issue. Since this is a server-side problem, no troubleshooting on your end can fix it.
2. Clear Cache (If ChatGPT Still Doesn’t Work After the Servers Are Fixed)
Once OpenAI resolves the issue, ChatGPT should start working again. However, if we still can’t access it, cached files in our browser may be causing the problem.
Then, it is recommended to clear the browser cache and cookies to refresh the connection and allow ChatGPT to load properly.
After clearing the cache, you should restart your browser and try using ChatGPT again. Your chat will work properly.
