    You can browse the web for possible solutions https://www.howtogeek.com/356389/what-is-a-502-bad-gateway-error-and-how-can-i-fix-it/ if you think problem is with ACCA rather than your computer I suggest you contact ACCA.

    I am away from my office this week – otherwise I could try and access it myself – the site does go down from time to time. I will alert a contact at ACCA to your issues so ACCA is aware – in the meantime I can only suggest you try again each day. There could just be a lot of traffic as many finalists may now be completing it in order to apply for membership.

    They have replied me as follows :
    I am sorry that you are experiencing an error message when trying to access the Ethics and Professional Skills Module (EPSM).

    When completing EPSM, please follow the steps below to minimize errors:

    – Use a laptop or PC if possible

    – Clear your cookies and temporary internet files

    – Please ensure that your browser is set to allow pop-ups and that

    – You have adobe reader installed

    – You need to use an up to date browser. Some functionality may be limited if you are using an old browser

    If this does not fix the issue or you receive any error message, please provide me with a screen shot (showing the full webpage and URL) and I will have our IT department investigate.

    However I am unable to launch the link even I did the above

    The same issue happens to me. Could anyone currently access EPSM?

    HTTP Error 502.5 – Process Failure
    Common causes of this issue:

    The application process failed to start
    The application process started but then stopped
    The application process started but failed to listen on the configured port

    Troubleshooting steps:

    Check the system event log for error messages
    Enable logging the application process’ stdout messages
    Attach a debugger to the application process and inspect
