AWstats... 302 http errors
 

just wondering, I have a custom 404 redirect set in htaccess, that just redirects any 404's to my root index page

when I go to Awstats, I see 1000 hits yesterday listed for 302

does awstats count those custom 404 redirects as 302's?

HTTP Status Codes:

HTTP status codes are returned by web servers to indicate the status of a request. Codes 200 and 304 are used to tell the browser the page can be viewed. All other codes generates hits and traffic 'not seen' by the visitor. For example a return code 301 or 302 will tell the browser to ask another page. The browser will do another hit and should finaly receive the page with a return code 200 and 304. All codes that are 'unseen' traffic are isolated by AWStats in the HTTP Status report chart, enabled by the directives ShowHTTPErrorsStats. in config file. You can also change value for 'not error' hits (set by default to 200 and 304 with the ValidHTTPcodes directive. The following table outlines all status codes defined for the HTTP/1.1 draft specification outlined in IETF rfc 2068.

They are 3-digit codes where the first digit of this code identifies the class of the status code and the remaining 2 digits correspond to the specific condition within the response class. They are classified in 5 categories:

thanks directfiesta :thumbsup

I checked that it was working correctly, I went to a page that redirected properly with my 404 redirect, then checked the logs and it was reported as a 302, so everything is working properly
