Usefulness is a subjective measure, of course, but usefulness in jokes/play is still usefulness. Not all codes are from HTTP RFCs and I also think the "bug" here is that IANA has ignored rfc2324 for too long and should recognize the RFC as a valid HTTP extension with useful HTTP status codes. Note for instance all the ones from rfc4918 which is the WebDAV extension to HTTP, such as 424 and 507. The HTCPCP argument isn't all that valid as there are several recognized (IANA) HTTP codes from HTTP extensions like HTCPCP. There's not really even a strong technical reason why they are three digit codes to begin with in plaintext HTTP, it's just an arbitrary choice. In HTTP/1.x the status codes are plaintext and it's not like it would be that much of a change to most HTTP parsers.
#HTTP ERROR 418 UNUSED CODE#
rfc2324 which defines the code is indeed not HTTP, it is HTCPCP (Hypertext Coffee Pot Control Protocol) and one could strongly argue that it doesn't belong in an HTTP library.Īt the point in the distant future where you are worried about needing more HTTP error codes and considering reusing 418 it may just be easier to just add more digits to the protocol. With that said, another part of the argument is valid. 503 Service Unavailable : The server is temporarily. 502 Bad Gateway : The server could not fulfill its function as a gateway or proxy, as it has in turn received an invalid response. For example, a cause is unknown or unsupported HTTP method. The node community can't decide unilaterally to change code points. 501 Not Implemented : The functionality to process the request is not available from this server. Second, "we may need this code point" is disingenuous unless the user is part of the W3C there is no "we" here. The backwards compatibility issue won't be any more/less of an issue then than now. įirst, you can remove it when there this problem actually happens. Qualsiasi tentativo di preparare il caffè con una teiera si tradurrà in un fallimento. > While we have a number of spare 4xx HTTP status codes that are unregistered now, the semantics of HTTP are something that (hopefully) are going to last for a long time, so one day we may need this code point. Errore HTTP 418 - T-Shirt Teiera ERRORE STATUS: Sono una teiera. And some of the reasons are kind of contrived. I’ll cover that in another article, if I decide to stick with it.I find the initiatives like this to be kind of a waste of time. What I actually decided to do was to take advantage of the static nature of the site - and experiment with hosting this blog directly on Amazon S3. You have to wait a few minutes for the change to happen, but after that, the page should start working. The simplest fix for this is to just uncheck the ‘Extra Web Security?’ option in the DreamHost control panel for this domain.

Took me a while to figure out where it was coming from, though. I guess it’s easy to see in logs and is unlikely to be caused by anything else. Additionally, even though some of the unassigned user codes are not formerly part of the HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) standard, there are companies that use them as customized server response for users, allowing companies to better troubleshoot issues users may be experiencing. This HTTP status is used as an easter egg in some websites, including . The RFC specifies this code should be returned by tea pots requested to brew coffee. This code was defined in 1998 as one of the traditional IETF April Fools’ jokes, in RFC 2324, Hyper Text Coffee Pot Control Protocol, and is not expected to be implemented by actual HTTP servers. The apache error.log for the site had lots of the following entries:

I SSH’d in to my account on the shared server to look at the logs. At some point I must have checked the ‘Extra Web Security?’ option in the DreamHost control panel for this domain. This is a static website - there’s no PHP anywhere - so why would that be a problem? Well, so far I’ve been very happily hosting the site on my old DreamHost shared hosting account - which comes with Apache & PHP installed whether you want it or not. Moreover, trying https instead of http redirects to.
#HTTP ERROR 418 UNUSED DOWNLOAD#
It turned out that this was being caused by the Apache/ PHP mod_security module. I also tried to write a python script with urllib2 to download the same page but i get the same response. Secondo questo articolo di Wikipedia, può essere utilizzato come codice di errore del client. I finally made the time to figure out the cause. Mi chiedevo se sai come Google e altri motori di ricerca trattano un sito web con codice di stato HTTP 418 Im a teapot.

My Comprehensive Linux Backups with etckeeper & backupninja article has been refusing to load, and returning a weird HTTP 418 Unused status code instead. I’ve had a mysterious broken page on this site for a while - but been too busy to look into it. Original clipart Kitchen Utensils Silhouette, by GDJ, Public Domain.
