Re^7: How to send a "true" 404 error via Perl

Is your error handler still on? Maybe it's returning 200 and those 372 bytes. What are those 372 bytes anyway? (i.e. What do you see in your browser?) My script generates 52 bytes of content, not 372 bytes, so something else is changing or overriding my script's output.

The only content in the browser is: `<title>404 Not Found</title> <h1>404 Not Found</h1>` [download] When I use web-sniffer.net I get the following HTTP Response Header: `HTTP Status Code: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2007 23:28:45 GMT CRLF Server: Apache/1.3.37 (Unix) mod_throttle/3.1.2 DAV/1.0.3 mod_fastc +gi/2.4.2 mod_gzip/1.3.26.1a PHP/4.4.4 mod_ssl/2.8.22 OpenSSL/0.9.7e + CRLF Connection: close CRLF Transfer-Encoding: chunked CRLF Content-Type: text/html CRLF` [download] So I guess, even though my log is still showing 200, that it is a "valid" 404 error?

<title>404 Not Found</title>

When I use web-sniffer.net I get the following HTTP Response Header:

HTTP Status Code: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Date:    Wed, 17 Jan 2007 23:28:45 GMT    CRLF
Server:    Apache/1.3.37 (Unix) mod_throttle/3.1.2 DAV/1.0.3 mod_fastc
+gi/2.4.2 mod_gzip/1.3.26.1a PHP/4.4.4 mod_ssl/2.8.22 OpenSSL/0.9.7e  
+  CRLF
Connection:    close    CRLF
Transfer-Encoding:    chunked    CRLF
Content-Type:    text/html    CRLF
[download]

So I guess, even though my log is still showing 200, that it is a "valid" 404 error?
