Incorrect crawl errors
-
A crawl of my websites has indicated that there are some 5XX server errors on my website:
Error Code 608: Page not Decodable as Specified Content Encoding
Error Code 803: Incomplete HTTP Response Received
Error Code 803: Incomplete HTTP Response Received
Error Code 608: Page not Decodable as Specified Content Encoding
Error Code 902: Network Errors Prevented Crawler from Contacting ServerThe five pages in question are all in fact perfectly working pages and are returning HTTP 200 codes. Is this a problem with the Moz crawler?

Thanks for this! I didn't think to check the server logs. I'll have them checked and make sure that it's not blocking Moz out from the crawl. We have thousands of URL's on our website and quite a strict security policy on the server - so I imagine Moz has probably been blocked out.
Thanks,
Liam

Hi,
These error code's are Moz custom codes to list errors it encounters when crawling your site - it's quite possible that when you check these pages in a browser that they load fine (and that google bot is able to crawl them as well).
You can find the full list of crawl errors here: https://mza.seotoolninja.com/help/guides/search-overview/crawl-diagnostics/errors-in-crawl-reports. You could try to check these url's with a tool like web-sniffer.net to check the responses and check the configuration of your server.

608 errors: Home page not decodable as specified Content-Encoding
The server response headers indicated the response used gzip or deflate encoding but our crawler could not understand the encoding used. To resolve 608 errors, fix your site server so that it properly encodes the responses it sends. -
803 errors: Incomplete HTTP response received
Your site closed its TCP connection to our crawler before our crawler could read a complete HTTP response. This typically occurs when misconfigured back-end software responds with a status line and headers but immediately closes the connection without sending any response data. -
902 errors: Unable to contact server
The crawler resolved an IP address from the host name but failed to connect at port 80 for that address. This error may occur when a site blocks Moz's IP address ranges. Please make sure you're not blocking AWS.
Without the actual url's it's impossible to guess what is happening in your specific case.
Hope this helps,
Dirk

612 : Page banned by error response for robots.txt
Hi all,
Link Explorer | | ME5OTU
I ran a crawl on my site https://www.drbillsukala.com.au and received the following error "612 : Page banned by error response for robots.txt." Before anyone mentions it, yes, I have been through all the other threads but they did not help me resolve this issue. I am able to view my robots.txt file in a browser https://www.drbillsukala.com.au/robots.txt.
The permissions are set to 644 on the robots.txt file so it should be accessible
My Google Search Console does not show any issues with my robots.txt file
I am running my site through StackPath CDN but I'm not inclined to think that's the culprit One thing I did find odd is that even though I put in my website with https protocol (I double checked), on the Moz spreadsheet it listed my site with http protocol. I'd welcome any feedback you might have. Thanks in advance for your help.

How do I fix 885 Duplicate Page Content Errors appearing in my Moz Report due to categories?
Hi There, I want to set up my Moz report to send directly to a client however there are currently 885 duplicate page content errors displaying on the report. These are mostly caused by an item listed in multiple 'categories' and each category is a new pages/URL. I guess my questions are: 1. Does Google see these as duplicate page content? Or does it understand the categories are there for navigation purposes. 2. How do I clear these off my Moz report so that the client doesn't panic that there are some major issues on the site Thanks for your advice.

804 error preventing website being crawled
Hi For both subdomains https://us.sagepub.com and https://uk.sagepub.com crawling is being prevented by a 804 error. I can't see any reason why this should be so as all content is served through https. Thanks

Remove Meta Description Errors
When Moz shows pages that are 404's you are able to remove them after the issue is fixed. Is there a way to do this for missing Meta Descriptions? It shows that numerous pages are missing them, but when I go look, it's already been corrected and it is still showing months later.

How Is a Page Crawled by Moz When Moz Says 'No Links'?
As above, really. I've crawled a new client's site to find the Moz crawler has identified a handful of 404 errors. The Moz crawler says these pages have '0 linking domains', and OSE has no data for these pages. So how are these pages being crawled by Moz and what should I advise my client?
