HTTP 502-Gateway Error
When a user tries to access content on a server that is running Internet information Services (IIS) through HTTP or File Transfer Protocol (FTP), IIS returns a numeric code that represents the status of the request. This status code is logged in the IIS log and may also be displayed in a Web browser or FTP client. The status code can indicate whether a specific request has succeeded, and can reveal the exact cause of the request failure.
Location of log files
By default, IIS places its log files in the%windirsystem32logfiles folder. Each World Wide Web (WWW) site and an FTP site have a separate directory in that directory. By default, log files are created every day in these directories, and the log file is named with the date (for example, ExYYMMDD.log).
HTTP

These status codes represent a temporary response. The client should be prepared to receive one or more 1xx responses before receiving a regular response. 100-Continue.
? 101-Switch protocol.
2XX-Success
This type of status code indicates that the server successfully accepted the client request. 200-OK. The client request was successful.

? 304-not modified.
? 307-Temporary redirection.

Common HTTP status codes and their causes
? 200-success. This status code indicates that the request was successfully processed by IIS.
? 304-not modified. The document requested by the client is already in its cache and the document has not been modified since it was cached. The client uses a cached copy of the document instead of downloading the file from the server.
? 401.1-Login failed. The logon attempt was unsuccessful, possibly because the user name or password is invalid.
? 401.3-not authorized due to ACL restrictions on resources. This indicates that there is an NTFS permission issue. This error can occur even if you have the appropriate permissions for the file you are trying to access. For example, if the IUSR account does not have permission to access the C:winntsystem32inetsrv directory, you will see this error. For additional information about how to resolve this issue, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
187506 base NTFS permissions for Info:iis 4.0
? 403.1-execution access is forbidden. The following are the two common causes of this error message:? You do not have sufficient permission to execute. For example, this error message occurs if you try to access an ASP page that has the directory permission set to None, or if you try to execute a CGI script that has the directory permission of "script only". To modify the execution permissions, right-click the directory in the Microsoft Management Console (MMC), then clicking the Properties and Directories tab, and then make sure that the appropriate execution permissions are set for the content you are trying to access.
? You have not set the script mapping of the file type you are trying to execute to recognize the verb (for example, GET or POST) that you are using. To verify this, right-click the directory in the MMC, clicking Properties, Directories tab, and configuration, and then verify that the script map for the appropriate file type is set to allow the verb to be used.
? 403.2-Read access is forbidden. Verify that IIS is set to allow read access to the directory. Also, if you are using the default file, verify that the file exists. For additional information about how to resolve this issue, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
247677 error message: 403.2 forbidden:read access Forbidden (403.2 Forbidden: Read access Forbidden)
? 403.3-Write access is forbidden. Verify that IIS permissions and NTFS permissions are set to grant write access to the directory. For additional information about how to resolve this issue, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
248072 error message: 403.3 forbidden:write access Forbidden (403.3 Forbidden: Write access Forbidden)
? 403.4-Requires SSL. Disable the Require secure channel option, or use HTTPS instead of HTTP to access the page. If this error occurs on a Web site that does not have a certificate installed, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
224389 error message: HTTP error 403, 403.4, 403.5 Forbidden: SSL Required
? 403.5-Requires SSL 128. Disable the Require 128-bit encryption option, or use a browser that supports 128-bit encryption to view the page. If this error occurs on a Web site that does not have a certificate installed, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
224389 error message: HTTP error 403, 403.4, 403.5 Forbidden: SSL Required
? The 403.6-IP address is rejected. You have configured your server to deny access to your current IP address. For additional information about how to resolve this issue, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

? 403.8-site access is denied. You have set a domain name limit for the domain that you use to access the server. For additional information about how to resolve this issue, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
248032 error message: Forbidden:site access Denied 403.8 (Forbidden: Site access denied 403.8)
? 403.9-Excessive number of users. The number of users connected to the server exceeds the connection limit that you set. For additional information about how to change this limit, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Note Microsoft Windows Professional and Microsoft Windows XP Professional automatically set a limit of up to 10 connections on IIS. You cannot change this limit.
? 403.12-Deny access to the mapping table. The page you want to access requires a client certificate, but the user ID that is mapped to your client certificate has been denied access to the file. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
248075 error message: HTTP 403.12-access forbidden:mapper Denied access (HTTP 403.12-Forbidden: Mapping table denied access)
? 404-not found. This error occurs because the file that you are trying to access has been moved or deleted. This error can also occur if you try to access a file with a limited extension after you install the URLScan tool. In this case, the word "Rejected by URLScan" appears in the log file entry for the request.

Common FTP status codes and their causes
? The 150-FTP uses two ports: 21 for sending commands, and 20 for sending data. Status code 150 indicates that the server is ready to open a new connection on port 20 and send some data.
? 226-The command opens a data connection on port 20 to perform operations, such as transferring files. The operation completed successfully and the data connection is closed.
? 230-The status code is displayed after the client sends the correct password. It indicates that the user has successfully logged on.
? 331-The status code is displayed after the client sends the user name. The status code is displayed regardless of whether the provided user name is a valid account in the system.
? 426-The command opens the data connection to perform the operation, but the operation has been canceled and the data connection is closed.
? 530-The status code indicates that the user cannot log on because the user name and password combination is not valid. If you are logged on with a user account, you might type an incorrect user name or password, or you may choose to allow only anonymous access. If you log on with an anonymous account, the configuration of IIS may deny anonymous access.
? 550-The command was not executed because the specified file is not available. For example, the file you want to get does not exist, or you try to put the file into a directory where you do not have write permission.
