Bad Request
|
The

Check the spelling of the URL carefully, including
the upper and lower case of the letters. If you
still can't find the page, see Finding
A Missing Link, and The
Virtual City Model. |

(not you). Possibly the site or page has been temporarily
taken off-line for maintenance or other activity. |

shortly. |
503

The
site is busy, or service has been temporarily suspended.
Try again later. |
Bad
file |
Either
your browser doesn't support a feature in the accessed
page, or there is an HTML error in the page. Try
upgrading your browser to the latest release, or
seeing if anyone else can access the page. |
Connection
refused |
Either
the site is serving the maximum number of users,
or is temporarily closed to public access. Try
again later. |
Connection
reset by peer |
For
some reason the remote side terminated the connection.
Try again. If this repeats on one site, there is
something wrong with the site. If it repeats on
more than one site, you probably have a bad line
connection. |

The
page was found, but is empty. It may be being updated.
Try again later. |
Fatal
Error. System call 'fopen' failed: No such file
or directory. |
Page
has moved, or the URL is wrong. |

spelling is correct, the site has been removed
(temporarily or permanently) from the Internet. |

object |
Same

You
tried to access a file for which your browser needs
a special helper application. Check the file type
referenced in the message, and add the appropriate
helper application. |
Host
unavailable |
The
site exists, but is not presently accessible. If
you can't access any other site either, then your
ISP is down. Otherwise, the site has been taken
off the Internet, possibly only temporarily for
maintenance. Try again later. |
Network

The
site is probably just too busy, or down for maintenance.
Try again later. |

Same
as "Failed DNS lookup" above. |

The
site is serving the maximum number of users. Every
few minutes try pressing Reload or Refresh until
you gain access. |
Unable
to locate host |
Same
as "Host unavailable" above. |
You
can't log on as an anonymous user |
Usually
caused when trying to access an FTP site. The site
may already have the maximum number of anonymous
users logged in, in which case you should try later.
If you still can't get in, it may be that the site
does not allow anonymous logins, in which case
you will have to use an FTP program to log in with
a valid user name. |
