When you try to access content on a server that is running Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0 by using HTTP, IIS 7.0 returns a numeric code that indicates the status of the response. The HTTP status code is recorded in the IIS log. Additionally, the HTTP status code may be displayed in the client browser.
The HTTP status code may indicate whether a request is successful or unsuccessful. The HTTP status code may also reveal the exact reason that a request is unsuccessful.

Log file locations

By default, IIS 7.0 puts log files in the following folder:

inetpublogsLogfiles

This folder contains separate directories for each World Wide Web site. By default, the log files are created in the directories daily, and the log files are named by using the date. For example, a log file may be named as follows:

exYYMMDD.log

The HTTP status codes

This section describes the HTTP status codes that IIS 7.0 uses.
Note This article does not list every possible HTTP status code as dictated in the HTTP specification. This article includes only the HTTP status codes that IIS 7.0 can send. For example, a custom Internet Server API (ISAPI) filter or a custom HTTP module can set its own HTTP status code.

1xx – Informational

These HTTP status codes indicate a provisional response. The client computer receives one or more 1xx responses before the client computer receives a regular response.
IIS 7.0 uses the following informational HTTP status codes:

  • 100 – Continue.
  • 101 – Switching protocols.
2xx – Success

These HTTP status codes indicate that the server successfully accepted the request.
IIS 7.0 uses the following success HTTP status codes:

  • 200 – OK. The client request has succeeded.
  • 201 – Created.
  • 202 – Accepted.
  • 203 – Nonauthoritative information.
  • 204 – No content.
  • 205 – Reset content.
  • 206 – Partial content.
3xx – Redirection

These HTTP status codes indicate that the client browser must take more action to fulfill the request. For example, the client browser may have to request a different page on the server. Or, the client browser may have to repeat the request by using a proxy server.
IIS 7.0 uses the following redirection HTTP status codes:

  • 301 – Moved permanently.
  • 302 – Object moved.
  • 304 – Not modified.
  • 307 – Temporary redirect.

Common HTTP status codes and the causes

The causes of some common HTTP status codes are as follows:

  • 200 – OK. IIS 7.0 successfully processed the request.
  • 304 – Not modified. The client browser requests a document that is already in the cache, and the document has not been modified since the document was cached. The client browser uses the cached copy of the document instead of downloading the document from the server.
  • 400 – Bad request. The Http.sys file blocks IIS 7.0 from processing the request because of a problem in the request. Typically, this HTTP status code means that the request contains characters or sequences that are not valid or that the request contradicts the security settings in the Http.sys file.
  • 401.1 – Logon failed. The logon attempt is unsuccessful probably because of a user name or a password that is not valid. For more information about how to resolve this problem, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
