Troubleshooting
Fixes for what goes wrong most: DNS conflicts, redirect loops, stale caches, and soft 404s. Start here when something looks broken.
Site not loading: Stale DNS cache (503, not reachable, 1001 or SSL error)
Your site is actually loading — it's a stale DNS cache on your machine or router.
Site not loading: Too many redirects
Fix redirect loops by unsetting your custom domain as primary in Lovable.dev.
DNS record conflict: Cannot add the A records
Resolve conflicts with existing A or CNAME records preventing DNS setup.
Debugging robots.txt and noindex issues
Figure out why Google/Bing say "blocked by robots.txt" or "noindex", and how to fix it.
Understanding Cache Refresh Rules in Encited
Cache Refresh Rules control how often Encited automatically generates a new prerendered snapshot of your pages.
Open ports in security scans are false positives
Why a connect-only port scan reports every port as open on the edge network, and how to verify nothing is actually exposed.
Soft 404 detection
How Encited turns SPA not-found routes into real 404 status codes for crawlers, and how to mark your 404 page explicitly.
Prerender ready signal
Manually tell the renderer when slow async content has finished loading, so nothing is missing from the snapshot.
