title: Misdirected Request

"Rails HTTP Status Symbol": ":misdirected_request"

|
|
The request was directed at a server that is not able to produce a response.
|
|
This can be sent by a server that is not configured to produce responses for the
|
|
combination of scheme and authority that are included in the request URI.
|
|
|
|
Clients receiving a 421 Misdirected Request response from a server MAY retry
|
|
the request -- whether the request method is idempotent or not -- over a
|
|
different connection. This is possible if a connection is
|
|
reused<sup>[1](#ref-1)</sup>or if an alternative service is selected
|
|
[ALT-SVC][3].
|
|
|
|
This status code MUST NOT be generated by proxies.
|
|
|
|
A 421 response is cacheable by default, i.e., unless otherwise indicated by the
|
|
method definition or explicit cache controls<sup>[2](#ref-2)</sup>.
