What is an error page?

An error page informs you of any problems with your website or web hosting. This feature allows you to create personalised error pages. In the event of an error, your visitor will be redirected to the page affected by the error.

The most common errors are

• Error 400 (Incorrect request): The request made by the client has not been understood by the server. This may be due to a syntax problem or a problem with your web browser.
• Error 401 (Authorisation required): The request could not be completed because some of the files requested are password-protected.
• Error 403 (Forbidden): The request was taken into account by the server, but the server refuses to send the real reason why the request was rejected.
• Error 404 (Not found): The web address you are trying to view does not exist.
• Error 500 (Internal server error): The server has encountered an unexpected condition that has unfortunately prevented it from processing the requested request. This is often due to a website configuration problem or a resource problem. You can find more information on the help related to error 500.
