Whenever people who surf the Web attempt 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 indicates whether the attempt was successful or unsuccessful. This status code is recorded in the IIS log, and it may also be displayed in the Web browser or FTP client. The status code can also indicate the exact reason why a request is unsuccessful.

IIS administrators can customize the error message that is displayed to users in their Web browser when a request is unsuccessful. For more information about how to create custom HTTP error messages in IIS, click the following article numbers to view the articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
