HTTP 502-Gateway error

When a user attempts to access content on a server running Internet Information Service (IIS) through HTTP or file transfer protocol (FTP), IIS returns a digital code indicating the status of the request. This status code is recorded in IIS logs and may also be displayed in a web browser or an FTP client. The status code can indicate whether the request is successful or not, and reveal the exact cause of the Request failure.
Log File Location
By default, IIS stores its log files in the % windirsystem32logfiles folder. Each WWW site and FTP site have a separate directory under this directory. By default, log files are created in these directories every day and named by date (for example, exyymmdd. Log ).
HTTP
1xx-Information prompt

These status codes indicate temporary responses. Before receiving a regular response, the client should be prepared to receive one or more 1xx responses. • 100-continue.
• 101-switch protocol.
2XX-success

This type of Status Code indicates that the server successfully accepts client requests. • 200-OK. The client request is successful.
• 201-created.
• 202-accepted.
• 203-non-authoritative information.
• 204-NO content.
• 205-Reset content.
• Part 1: content.
3xx-redirection

The client browser must perform more operations to implement the request. For example, the browser may have to request different pages on the server or repeat the request through the proxy server. • 302-the object has been moved.
• 304-not modified.
• 307-temporary redirection.
4xx-client Error

The client seems to be faulty when an error occurs. For example, the client does not provide valid authentication information for a page that does not exist in a request. • 400-Incorrect request.
• 401-Access denied. IIS defines many different 401 errors, which indicate more specific error causes. These specific error codes are displayed in the browser but not in the IIS log: • 401.1-Logon Failed.
• 401.2-login failed due to server configuration.
• 401.3-the ACL is not authorized due to resource restrictions.
• 401.4-filter authorization failed.
• 401.5-An error occurred while authorizing the ISAPI/cgi application.
• 401.7-the access is rejected by the URL Authorization Policy on the Web server. This error code is dedicated to IIS 6.0.

• 403-forbidden access: IIS defines many different 403 errors, which indicate a more specific cause of the error: • 403.1-the execution access is forbidden.
• 403.2-Read access is forbidden.
• 403.3-write access is forbidden.
• 403.4-requires SSL.
• 403.5-requires SSL 128.

Common HTTP status codes and their causes
• 200-success. This status code indicates that IIS has successfully processed the request.
• 304-not modified. The document requested by the client is already in its cache and has not been modified since the cache. The client uses cached copies of documents instead of downloading documents from the server.
• 401.1-Logon Failed. The logon attempt fails, possibly because the user name or password is invalid.
• 401.3-the ACL is not authorized due to resource restrictions. This indicates that NTFS permission issues exist. This error may occur even if you have the relevant permissions on the file you are trying to access. For example, if the IUSR account does not have access to the C: winntsystem32inetsrv directory, you will see this error. For more information about how to solve this problem, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
187506 info: Basic NTFS permission for IIS 4.0
• 403.1-the execution access is forbidden. The following are two common causes of this error: • you do not have sufficient execution permits. For example, if the directory permission of the ASP page to be accessed is set to "NONE", or the directory permission of the CGI script to be executed is "only allow scripts ", this error message is displayed. To modify the execution permission, right-click the directory in the Microsoft Management Console (MMC), and then click the properties and directory tabs to ensure that the appropriate execution permission is set for the content to be accessed.
• You have not set the script ing of the file type you are trying to execute to identify the predicates used (for example, get or post ). To verify this, right-click the directory in MMC, click Properties, Directory tab, and configuration, and then verify that the script ing of the corresponding file type is set to allow the predicates to be used.

• 403.2-Read access is forbidden. Verify that IIS has been set to allow read access to the directory. In addition, if you are using a default file, verify that the file exists. For more information about how to solve this problem, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
247677 error message: 403.2 forbidden: Read Access forbidden (403.2 Access prohibited: Read access prohibited)
• 403.3-write access is forbidden. Verify that the IIS and NTFS permissions are set to grant write access to the directory. For more information about how to solve this problem, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
248072 error message: 403.3 forbidden: Write Access forbidden (403.3 Access prohibited: Write Access prohibited)
• 403.4-requires SSL. Disable the require security 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 errors 403, 403.4, 403.5 Prohibit Access: require SSL
• 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 errors 403, 403.4, 403.5 Prohibit Access: require SSL
• 403.6-the IP address is rejected. You have configured your server to deny access to your current IP address. For more information about how to solve this problem, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Note: Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional and Microsoft Windows XP Professional automatically set a maximum of 10 connections on IIS. You cannot change this restriction.
• 403.12-access to the ing table is denied. The client certificate is required for the page to be accessed, but the user ID mapped to your client certificate has been denied access to the file.

• 500.12-the application is restarting. This indicates that you attempt to load ASP pages When IIS restarts the application. After the page is refreshed, this information disappears. If this information appears again after the page is refreshed, it may be that the anti-virus software is scanning the global. Asa file.

Common FTP status code and Its Causes
• 150-FTP uses two ports: 21 for sending commands and 20 for sending data. Status Code 150 indicates that the server is preparing 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 file transfer. This operation is successfully completed 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. This status code is displayed no matter whether the 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 has been closed.
• 530-the status code indicates that the user cannot log on because the combination of the user name and password is invalid. If you log on with a user account, you may enter the wrong user name or password, or you may choose to allow anonymous access only. If you log on with an anonymous account, the IIS configuration may reject anonymous access.
• 550-the command is not executed because the specified file is unavailable. For example, the file to get does not exist, or you try to put the file to a directory without the write permission.
