HTTP/404 - Object not found

phlip · April 8, 2003, 12:00am

Does anyone else find it odd that they thought of 403 messages before thinking “What if they type the address wrong?”

What’s even crazier is HTTP/200 - OK

just curious…

I think it starts at 400, because ‘4’ is a certain type of error, and ‘04’ is the specific error within that category.

Now that you mention it, I don’t think I’ve ever seen any error that wasn’t 404. Wierd.

Yes, i thought so too, not quite as funny now.

Well, I know 403 is forbidden, I don’t know any others

401 is access denied, and 500 is internal server error.

Complete list from official RFC2616 spec (pp.40-41):

W3C:

The first digit of the Status-Code defines the class of response. The
last two digits do not have any categorization role. There are 5
values for the first digit:

  - 1xx: Informational - Request received, continuing process

  - 2xx: Success - The action was successfully received,
    understood, and accepted

  - 3xx: Redirection - Further action must be taken in order to
    complete the request

  - 4xx: Client Error - The request contains bad syntax or cannot
    be fulfilled

  - 5xx: Server Error - The server failed to fulfill an apparently
    valid request

The individual values of the numeric status codes defined for
HTTP/1.1, and an example set of corresponding Reason-Phrase’s, are
presented below. The reason phrases listed here are only
recommendations – they MAY be replaced by local equivalents without
affecting the protocol.

Well you would say that, SATAN!!

Seriosly, blue screens are usually a load of random letters and numbers and have about 16 digits [!]
