Unclear HTTP-TPC error messages
- moving from gridftp to webdav decreased clarity of error messages
- generic HTTP 500 error not very useful to diagnose problems
- CMS suggest to create project with aim to improve situation
- followup discussion in the WLCG DOMA TPC mailing list
- account out of quota or filesystem out of space
- missing/no such directory/file
- file or server-with-file unavailable
- permission creating directory/file
- certificate/token expired
- other authorization error
- transfer timeout
- connection reset/interrupt
- service on other endpoint unreachable <IP address (or name, if no DNS entry)>
- number of transfers/connections/requests exceeeded
- canceled/aborted transfer
- response from FTS developers
- error messages try to signalize where they comes from (storage / gfal / FTS)
- storage must report reasonable responses in the first place
- extend compliance testsuite
- e.g. same HTTP return codes as a response for given storage issue
- details about unclear XRootD/HTTP error messages should be reported via github issue
