             Summary: Wrong 503-unavailable status code in Distribution API responses
                 Key: SLING-11371
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-11371
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Content Distribution
            Reporter: José Correia


Sometimes we are answered with an HTTP *503-UNAVAILABLE* status code when there are unexpected errors within the distribution system.

This status code is misleading since the service is not unavailable, but had an unexpected exception. Maybe a more precise status code would be a *500*

 

However, we need to make sure that we don't break current clients, so this change needs to be discussed.
