RE: What's error411-length required

Thanks a lot guys .. but I'm still in the dark ...

What does "Error 411: Length Required" mean for me trying to interpret what 
Linkbot is telling me?  I should see OK everywhere for links that work, but 
for every external link I see this 411 error.

Your helpful references?

helpfully says that Error 411 means length required.  Adds nothing else.

Yeah. Good.  now tell me something I didnt know already



http://www.ietf.org  has no apparent info about error messages, just heaps 
of stuff about the organisation IETF and a zillion other acronyms.  But no 
actual information about what error code 411 means.

Or the apache docs can't hurt either.

I dont have Apache, and I'm not about to download all that unless I really 
have to.

So I'm still no more informed that I was ages ago.  Linkbot's not testing 
the links at all, and instead is reporting every external link as 411: 
length required.

What gives?
