What does a 404 error message mean?

A 404 error message indicates that the webpage you are trying to access could not be found on the server. This means the server is reachable, but it is unable to locate the specific page requested. Instead of displaying the intended content, the server returns this error code to inform you that the page is unavailable. If you continue to encounter this error, you may need to check the source of the link or explore alternative ways to find the information you are looking for.  


Here are different versions of the 404 error message you may see. While the wording may vary, they all mean the same thing: the browser couldn’t locate the requested resource.

  • "Page Not Found."
  • "404 Error: File Not Found."
  • "HTTP 404 – Not Found."
  • "The requested URL was not found on this server."
  • "File or directory not found."


Possible Reasons for 404 Errors: 

  • Mistyped URLs: Incorrect web addresses can lead to 404 pages.
  • Content Changes or Deletions: Missing redirects cause 404 errors.
  • Broken Page Assets: Missing files like images or videos can trigger errors.
  • Server or Hosting Issues: Problems with server settings or .htaccess files.
  • DNS Errors: Incorrect domain settings may direct users to error pages.


If you encounter a 404 error, here are a few steps you may try:

  • Carefully check the web address for any possible errors or typos that might be causing the issue.
  • Clear your browser’s cache, as it might be displaying an outdated version of the page, leading to the 404 error.
  • Restart your browser to eliminate any temporary glitches or issues that could be causing the error to persist.
  • Try opening the link in an incognito or private browsing window, which can bypass any problematic browser extensions or settings.
  • Test the link on another device to see if the issue is specific to your current device or if it affects others as well.
  • Ask someone else to try accessing the link on their network. This can help determine if the problem is related to your local network or internet connection.
