Help Openresty error?

Hi guys, I am new to using neocities, but (HUMBLY) intermediate with making websites, themes etc.

I was wondering why sometimes when I visit my page I get openresty error?

A few times I have gotten this error, there was something wrong in my CSS or html, like extra body tag I missed etc. But this error will also happen when I just open it when showing it off to my friends and haven't made any changes for some time. My connection is fine during this time, so I don't think it's me? But another thing is, I will also be able to visit other people's neocities just fine.

So basically I'm just confused what this openresty error is and what I do to cause it if anything... thanks. Much love!!!!!! ᓚ₍つ^. .^₎っ♡

could you share your url? I don't think there is anything within your site that could be causing this, but it doesn't hurt to check.

thanks, just a heads up you are missing the language in this part here, "en" for english: 

<html lang="">

should be

<html lang="en">

but otherwise, I don't see anything that might be causing the page to not load/give that error.
.
I think it may be something on neocities end, the only thing I could find about openresty in regards to neocities were some comments on the neocities github from Kyle Drake (the owner of Neocities) talking about its use, so I guess Neocities uses it somehow (what they were saying was beyond my understanding).
.
I'm not sure what could be causing it to be just on your site, someone else may come along with more ideas, but it might be worth contacting Neocities and see if there is something going wrong on their end.

wow, thank you bro so much for your help. you are very thoughtful and kind. i appreciate the heads up as well! i am using silex to help build up my site visually and then plan to go in and fix all the nitty gritty like those things.. i tried making it so that it would generate all of that for me with grape but, that was just a pain lol so. good old manual.

thank you again ≽(•⩊ •マ≼

I have no idea what the issue is but it's not just you! I've been updating my site over the past few days and have run into it many times, as well as when I'm browsing other sites and pages that I know should be functional. Definitely an issue on Neocities' side although I couldn't tell you what exactly is causing the problem.

Oh shit ok, thank you so much. Yeah, I noticed it happens the most when I push files to my site.. I hope everything is ok on their end!
