FAQ:
❓ What is a proxy status error?
A proxy status error is an HTTP error code that occurs when your request fails to complete its journey through the proxy chain: from your client to the proxy server to the target website and back.
❓ What is an HTTP status code?
An HTTP status code is a three-digit number returned by a web server in response to a request from a client (like a browser or bot). It indicates the result of the request: whether it was successful, redirected, resulted in an error, or failed due to client or server issues.
❓ How do I prevent proxy errors from happening?
Use high-quality proxy infrastructure with good IP reputation, smart rotation to avoid rate limits, and multiple geographic locations for redundancy.
❓ When should I retry after getting a proxy error?
For 5xx server errors, implement retry logic with exponential backoff. For 4xx client errors, fix the underlying issue first before retrying.
