Information:-
A 404 error is an HTTP status code that means that the page you were trying to
reach on a website couldn't be found on their server.
Another possibility is
if a website has moved a page or resource and forgot to redirect the old URL to
the new one. When that happens, you'll receive a 404 error instead of being
automatically rdirected to the new page.
Possible Remedy:-
1. Retry the web page by
pressing F5, clicking the
refresh/reload button, or trying the URL from the address bar again.
2. Check for errors in the
URL
3. Move up one directory
level at a time in the URL until you find something.
For example, if www.abc.com/aaa/bbb/ccc.html gave you the 404 Not Found error, move up to www.abc.com/aaa/bbb/. If you get nothing here (or an error), move up to www.abc.com/aaa/. This should lead you toward what you're looking for or at least confirm that it's no longer available.
For example, if www.abc.com/aaa/bbb/ccc.html gave you the 404 Not Found error, move up to www.abc.com/aaa/bbb/. If you get nothing here (or an error), move up to www.abc.com/aaa/. This should lead you toward what you're looking for or at least confirm that it's no longer available.
4. Search for the page at a
popular search engine. It's possible that you simply have the entirely wrong
URL in which case a quick Google or Bing search will help.
5. If you do find the page
you were after, update your bookmark or favorite to avoid the HTTP 404 error in
the future.
6. Clear your browser's cache and clearing your browser's cookies
7. Change the DNS servers used by your computer but usually only
if an entire website is giving you a 404 error, especially if the website is
available to others on other networks (e.g. your mobile phone network or a
friend in another city).
8. Finally, if all else fails, contact the website directly.
A WHOIS search,
using the site's domain name (e.g. weather.com) as your search term, should
give you some contact information.
You might have luck emailing webmaster@website.com,
replacing website.com with the actual website name.
