How To Fix "Status Code 504" Error in Minecraft?

A status code 504 (Gateway Timeout) in Minecraft usually means the server or the client is waiting too long for a response from another server (often Mojang’s authentication servers, a proxy, or a realm service).

How to Fix Status Code 504 in Minecraft?

1. Check the Server’s and Network Status

   1. Try restarting your Minecraft server to see if that helps

   2. Check Mojang’s server status to see if they’re having problems: https://downdetector.com/status/minecraft/

   3. Restart your internet connection or try using a VPN, Mobile Data, or a different internet connection

2. Flush your DNS cache

   1. Windows: Open Command Prompt and run ipconfig /flushdns

   2. MacOS: Open Command Prompt and run sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder

3. Try Again Later

   1. Some 504 errors are temporary due to high server load or maintenance. Waiting for a few minutes and trying again can resolve the issue.

If none of these steps resolve the 504 error, the issue may be on Mojang’s end or with the host that you’re using. If you have any issues or concerns, please contact us through the ticket system.
