In the database of the Lupa crawler
<gemini://gemini.bortzmeyer.org/software/lupa/>, I find the following
status codes (by order of decreasing frequency):
(The status codes are documented in
<gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/docs/specification.gmi#fragments_could_be_useful_to_indicate_the_exact_section>.)
20 : OK
51 : Not found, because many links no longer work, already, or may be
never worked
31 : Permanent redirection (Lupa adds the target URI to its database
but keeps the original one)
30 : Temporary redirection
10 : Input, there are 310 URI replying by asking for input
50 : Permanent failure, something wrong in the server
40 : Temporary failure, server overloaded?
60 : Client certificate required, 40 URI require this authentication
42 : The ultimate answer (no, actually, CGI error)
53 : Proxy request refused (typically a name pointing to an IP address
where the server is not configured for this virtual host)
The rest is marginal, less than ten URI:
49 : First status code I find which is not in the official
specification. Anyone has an idea? Two URI.
2 : Old server with the deprecated one-digit status codes?
39 : Not in the official specification. Anyone has an idea? Two URI.
59 : Bad request (no idea why my client sends bad requests)
99 : Not in the official specification. Anyone has an idea? Two URI.
58 : Not in the official specification. Anyone has an idea? Two URI.
29 : Not in the official specification. Anyone has an idea? Two URI.
43 : Proxy error. Reason unknown.
61 : Certificate not authorised. Since I do not send client
certificates, this is surprising.
41 : Server not available (maintenance, for instance).
52 : Gone. Like 51 but final. Just one URI,
<gemini://gemini.conman.org/no-longer-here/> so it's probably a test.
22 : Not in the official specification. Anyone has an idea? One URI.
69 : Not in the official specification. Anyone has an idea? One URI.
19 : Not in the official specification. Anyone has an idea? One URI.
The number of status codes not registered in the specification may
mean that some servers are extending the Gemini protocol with unused
status codes. But some are also in test capsules like
<gemini://gemini.conman.org/> or <gemini://egsam.glv.one/>.
Note that Lupa did not find even one occurrence of:
11 : Sensitive input
44 : Slow down (may be because the crawler is nice)
62 : Certificate not valid (which makes sense since I don't send
certificates)
My server may be the cause of the 39 codes. When I have read thespecs I missed the appendix so I assumed all 3x code were fine forredirecting and I chose 39. While looking why Amfora client wascomplaining about "unknown status core 39" on irc #gemini, I'vebeen told to look at the appendix and I realized my mistake.
