I just want to say that your solution was the best solution out of all of these that worked.
I took it even farther and installed the new Cloudflare Zero Trust client and registered it. Once registered and connected everything started working again, including plugins and viewing past chats.

Users on the forum are expressing frustration with an issue they’re encountering on ChatGPT. The error message, “Oops, an error occurred! Try again,” appears frequently and hampers the normal functioning of the platform. bcswow first highlighted the problem and danb1 added that it also happens on two of their existing chat threads while accessing through the API works fine. Other users such as andykras, who found the server was returning an empty response, and przem, who experienced the issue despite activating and deactivating a VPN and trying different browsers, reported similar accounts. While Andykras suggested a couple of technical solutions, these did not work for all users.
The problem seems to only happen with a selection of plugins, as noted by ourtown and przem. tammykgross and asitech07 who experienced similar issues, were looking for an appropriate solution to get rid of the disruptive error messages. luis1 and luis1 pointed out that some combinations of plugins like VoxScript and AskYourPDF caused issues. Additional plugin-related complications were noted by users przem, asptrader, and newsdro.
Insights from asptrader suggest that the issue might be on the server-side and stemmed from changes in revenue opportunities for plugin developers after OpenAI’s recent announcement. vinicius5581 and dahna.chandler were also affected but were unable to resolve it. According to noneisaround, the problem wasn’t isolated to one plugin but was affecting all plugins, causing widespread disruptions in ChatGPT’s performance.
Finally, laurent4671 proposed a potential solution by creating a Greasemonkey script that modifies server responses, preventing the issue from occurring. However, the efficacy of this fix remains to be tested by the forum users.
