当充当网关或代理的服务器没有及时收到来自上游服务器的响应时，就会发生 504 — 网关超时错误。它表示服务器之间存在延迟或通信故障。
504 错误的常见原因：
- 上游服务器运行缓慢： 正在联系的服务器需要很长时间才能响应。
- 网络问题： 服务器之间的连接不佳。
- 服务器超载： 上游服务器处理的请求过多。
- 代理配置问题： 代理配置不当可能会导致延迟或通信失败。
它如何影响你
504 错误使您的请求无法完成，使您无法访问所需的内容。对于代理用户而言，这可能表明目标服务器太慢或无法访问。
504 — 网关超时错误快速修复：
- 刷新页面： 这个问题可能是暂时的。
- 切换代理服务器： 使用其他代理来避免延迟。
- 检查上游服务器状态： 确保您尝试访问的服务器处于运行状态。
- 优化代理配置： 验证超时设置和连接稳定性。
如何避免 504 — 网关超时错误：
- 使用具有快速稳定的服务器的可靠代理提供商。
- 实现负载平衡以减轻服务器压力。
- 定期监控和测试服务器和代理的性能。

用例
Web Scraping Large Datasets
When scraping at scale, 504s may appear if the target server can’t handle concurrent requests. Smart rotation of residential or ISP proxies can distribute the load.
API Integrations
APIs with strict response windows often trigger 504 errors if requests involve large payloads. Configuring longer proxy timeouts ensures those API calls don’t drop.
E-commerce Traffic Surges
During high-demand events (like Black Friday), overwhelmed servers may not respond in time. Proxies with load balancing and failover options reduce failed requests.
最佳实践
Use Adaptive Proxy Routing
Route requests through optimized proxies that balance speed and reliability, reducing the risk of hitting a slow or unresponsive upstream server.
Implement Retry Logic
Automate retries for failed requests. Many 504 errors are temporary—retrying after a short delay often succeeds.
Monitor and Log Requests
Keep detailed logs to identify whether the issue comes from proxy misconfigurations, upstream servers, or DNS delays.
Scale Infrastructure Ahead of Time
For businesses expecting high traffic, scaling server and proxy resources proactively helps avoid bottlenecks leading to 504s.
结论
A 504 Gateway Timeout means a server acting as a gateway (often a proxy) didn’t get a timely response from an upstream server. Within the proxy industry, this usually reflects either an overloaded origin server or a proxy misconfiguration. Adjusting timeout settings, monitoring infrastructure, and retrying requests can often resolve the issue.

经常问的问题
What causes a 504 Gateway Timeout?
+
It’s caused by an upstream server taking too long to respond, often due to overload, network delays, or proxy timeout settings.
Is a 504 error my fault as a user?
+
Usually not. It’s a server-side issue, but proxies and DNS configurations can sometimes play a role.
How does the proxy industry help avoid 504 errors?
+
Proxies can reroute requests through faster or more reliable nodes, apply retries, and balance traffic loads to reduce upstream delays.
Can retrying fix a 504 error?
+
Yes, in many cases. Temporary overloads often resolve on the next attempt, especially when using smart retry logic with proxies.
