"checked" download links

Postby downwithpants » Sun Aug 10, 2003 11:58 pm

ok, under the video information page in the downloads section, there is that new checked: section.

i'm assuming that the first two entries are the date and time it was checked.

1. what's the next number mean [usu. 200]?
2. does the last entry [OK] mean that the link is good?
3. who checks the links?[/img]

Hey,

You are correct about the date/time thing. I am writting up a little thing about what the next two fields mean. Basically, the code is the numerical value for the error returned (ex. "404"). The text afterwards is the text returned with the code (ex. "File Not Found"). The common returns would be:

200 - OK (means that the file or website was found and responded; good link)
301 - Moved Permanently
302 - Object moved
400 - Bad Request
401 - Authorization Required
403 - Forbidden
404 - Not Found
500 - Internal Server Error
501 - Not Implemented
503 - Service Unavailable

Hey,

I forgot to answer your question #3: The server checks the links every night. It takes about 4.5 hours to check all 8100+ links (because the max timeout for checking a link is 10 seconds).
