Most Common HTTP Errors

Errors are distinguished by their HTTP error codes; we can also specify a particular page to redirect to that is based on the HTTP error code that is raised.

The followings are some of the most common errors.

400: Bad Request - This means the request could not be understood by the server.  The request was denied due to a syntax error in the request.

401:  Unauthorized - This means the request requires authentication.

402: Payment required - This means the data is not accessible at the time.  The owner of the space has not yet paid his or her service provider or the server was unable to serve the data that was requested.

403: Forbidden - This means the IP address or the username/password entered were not correct and the request was denied as there was no permission to access the data.

404: Not found - This means the document requested either no longer exists or has never existed on the server.

405: Method not allowed- Means the method you are using to access the document is not allowed.

408: Request Timeout - Means the server has closed the socket due to communications between the client and server taking too long.

414: The URL requested is too long.

500: Internal server error. The server encountered an error - This is most often caused by a scripting problem, a failed database access attempt, or similar reasons.

503: Service unavailable- This means the server is overloaded or down for maintenance and was unable to process the client request.
