Subject: When was this implemented? (error message)

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

In my many years at bungie I have seen many error pages. But never have i ever seen this one until today....

http://www.bungie.net/Errors/error400.html?aspxerrorpath=/fan club/theewarriors/News/[url=[url=http:/www.bungie.net/fanclub /346372/Group/GroupHome.aspx]The%20Backdrop

Is this new? Or just an old random thing?

You merely have a bad link. Bungie.net gives you that page every time you enter something behind "www.bungie.net/" that doesn't link anywhere.

I see. I clicked a link posted in a group.

I looked at the source and saw "IE 7" so in terms of age Internet Explorer 7 was released on January 31, 2006. That should give you a general idea.

Do you use IE?

I've always anded up to that page. I think its pretty old as its got the old Menu bar and background.

As for your other question, I really have no idea how old it is.

That's not the same. If you enter a false link at the end of the Bungie link, it takes you to a 404. This is a 400. Did the link exist before and disappear later?

Oh I see. I thought he meant the same page (with the webmaster and stuff).

My bad.

I'm pretty sure that merely means that you have to enter random symbols or something to confuse Bungie.net. It's basically the same. Like... one second...

Edit:Looky looky.

You just have to have http://www.bungie.net/Errors/error[Insert-desired-error-numbe r-here].html?[anything-you-want-here] for it to show up at the desired error page.

It's because he has 'http://' in the URL. The server doesn't understand the request because it's a bunch of jargon. The URL is totally screwy so you get a 400 error.

Yes, that's how URL parameters work.

Are you sure? You might not see it, but "http://" is always there, it doesn't work if it isn't. But most web browsers seem to hide it from you...

For example, when you click on this link, your browser might say "www.bungie.net/" in the bar, as mine does for chrome. But I find that when I copy the link and paste it, it reappears as http://www.bungie.net/.

Am I making sense?

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

Its pretty old. Your specific error was because you were trying to access something that was forbidden for your account parameters. It looks like it was something in a group. Perhaps a part of the group that was deleted by the system or the admins. I was in that group years ago, so I know its and old one. Or perhaps that page was just hidden. I believe you get that specific message when you try to access group boards that you're not a member of, and the Zanzibar and Optimatch forums.

Since Bungie killed off most of the group resources a while ago, I assume it was an old link to one of those (contact page, guestbooks page, notes page, etc). Though I think you get the 403 error from those specific kind of redirects. I get them all the time when trying to access old news stories.

Regardless, its not new. We just don't often get those errors during our usual forum interaction.\

-edit-

No I was wrong. You get that specific message when you try to access a page that no longer exists. 400.

403 is the error you get when you don't have access to that page because of security protocol.

Yes, it's always there at the front of the URL; it identifies the application protocol of the connection, which is HTTP. I'm saying that the problem is that 'http://' was in the URL again:http://www.bungie.net/Errors/error400.html?aspxerrorpath=/fan club/theewarriors/News/[url=[url=http:/www.bungie.net/fanclub /346372/Group/GroupHome.aspx]The%20Backdrop
That means it's passing a parameter called "aspxerrorpath" to error400.html, with a value of "/fanclub/theewarriors/News/[url=[url=http:/www.bungie.n et/fanclub/346372/Group/GroupHome.aspx]The%20Backdrop". What that means is that OP tried to go to www.bungie.net/fanclub/theewarriors/News/[url=[url=http:/www. bungie.net/fanclub/346372/Group/GroupHome.aspx]The%20Backdrop , which is obviously not a valid URL. Although for some reason that doesn't give me a 400 error, but bungie.net/http:// does, which is why I think that's the problem (the second http:// in the URL).

EDIT: Yeah, it's got a URL in a URL and all kinds of problems. Server is scratching its head.

Check this out. It has the same beginning, but no extra http:// in it, and it gives you the same page...

and http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/theewarriors/News/[url=[url=htt p:/www. bungie.net/fanclub/346372/Group/GroupHome.aspx]The%20Backdrop gives a 404 error instead.

You're redirected to that page once you get a 400 error. Same with all errors. If you try to do something that you shouldn't and get a security error, you're redirected to the 403error.html page. That's what that page does. error404.html displays the 404 error message. I'm actually not sure why that page even needs parameters; the content doesn't change.

I'm talking about what's up with the original link that GAVE the error that redirected OP to that page. Also, yeah, it gives a 404, so I'm kinda confused. The point is that the original link is busted and the server doesn't understand the request.

If you look at the link in the original post, it already has the error written in though, is what I'm saying. And if that were true, wouldn't the second link I posted from your post redirect you to the 400 error instead?

Yeah, which is why I'm confused. OP got redirected to the 400 error page and just copied that URL, but the link he tried to click is there. It gives the error path, but when we replicate that, we don't get a 400 error which is why I'm confused.

What's confusing you?

*Puts pipe in mouth* And through deduction we can then infer that, no matter how unusual, either the original poster, or the poster of which the original poster is inferring to, manually edited the link on purpose or otherwise to give out such an error! It's elementry, my dear ctjl96.
