Troubleshooting

http://chart.googleapis.com/chart: The server responded with a status of 502

Issue: No QR code to set up TFA for admins can be generated in the admin anymore.
Reason: This is due to the shutdown of the Google Charts API. Please upgrade the module to the latest version, which implements a local QR code generation technique.
