<p>My Zalenium installation on an OpenShift environment is far from stable. The web ui (admin view with vnc, dashboard, selenium console) works about 50% of the time and connecting with a RemoteWebDriver doesn't work at all.</p>

<p><strong>Error:</strong> <br>
504 Gateway Time-out
The server didn't respond in time.</p>

<p><strong>WebDriver error:</strong><br></p>

<pre><code>org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: Unable to parse remote response: &lt;html&gt;&lt;body&gt;&lt;h1&gt;504 Gateway Time-out&lt;/h1&gt;
The server didn't respond in time.
&lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt;

<p>Usually this means that the service account does not have enough rights, perhaps start by checking that.</p>
