Getting error: HTTP Error 405 Method not allowed

Getting error: HTTP Error 405 Method not allowed Hello friends. I am having some problem while browsing the internet. For some of the sites, I get the error message as “HTTP Error 405 Method not allowed” with a blank page. This happens randomly to some of the sites. I am not able to understand that what is the reason for this problem and how that can be resolved? I was also searching for this on web but failed to get some work around for this and so I am posting over here to have some information from people over here. Can you tell me that what is the reason for this problem or what does that error message mean?

Like the web server is read only then it will not be possible for any of the clients to change the URL resources with the web server. If this is attempted then that will be fired with the PUT and DELETE method. In the same way, if there is no user input that means all the pages are static then it is possible that the PUBLISH method can be rejected. This is the reason that 405 error comes for the web server because it is not configured to the customer data. Other than this, if the client is not having enough authority used for the particular URL resource which is identified in the request then also you will get that error. The HTTP protocol is used to make a method so that it can indicate that which actions is to be taken on the web server for any of the URL whichc is detected by the client. Here are those methods: OPTIONS: It looks for the communication options for some URL resource. This permits the client for determining the options as well as the requirements which are linked with the resource otherwise the potential of the server and that is also devoid of some particular action that involves the transfer of the data. GET: This helps to get the information from the URL resource. This is very common method used. HEAD: This is very similar to the GET but the difference is that the server gives back the header information only. You will not get the actual information with this. This is very useful to get the meta information regarding the entity which is obscured by the request devoid of entity-body transfer. This is normally used for testing hypertext links for verifying validity, accessibility, as well as current modification. POST: It is used for submitting data on the web server like post message to bulletin board, give the input data to the data handling process, add records in the database openly. PUT: This is used for putting data to set some URL to the fresh data that are submitted by the client. DELETE: This method is used when you wish to delete some data which is associated with the URL resource. TRACE: Used to operate the remote application-layer loop-back of request message. CONNECT: This is kept for the use through tunneling from the proxy server.

Domain name servers (DNSs) given the lookup that is the exchange of IP name to IP address. Open the IP socket connection toward that IP address. This writes the HTTP data stream as of that socket. Get the HTTP data stream as of the Web server. The data steam that is received is having the status codes and value of that code can be detected from the HTTP protocol. Thakt will parse the data stream used for the status codes as well as other helpful information. The error that you are getting happens in the final step while the client get HTTP status code and it detected it as '405'.

It is possible that you are trying to post some type of input as of the website. As all the ISP do not permit the POST method for processing form. It is possible to trace Web server with the help of each of the Every 405 errors. It is also possible to trace the security which is governing admission to the content of the Web site and this is the reason that it can be explained simply through your ISP.

Browsers and servers communicate through the so-called HTTP status codes. When you request a page, the server where the site is a code with a certain message. For example, a page "ok" are (200 code), moved (301 code), or not found (404 file not found code). When a page is set so that only the GET request may be requested by a client (eg a browser or a spider ) and a method used to post the page to request, this error will occur. Reply With Quote Reply
