ERROR RESPONSE DETECTION IN HTTP-BASED COMMUNICATIONS

In an example, a gateway device includes a gateway application to receive a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) request from a client device and transmit the HTTP request to a server. Further, the gateway application may receive an HTTP response from the server responsive to the HTTP request and determine whether a size of a response body of the HTTP response is less than a threshold. In response to determining the size of the response body is less than the threshold, the gateway application may determine whether the response body includes a predefined sequence. Further, in response to determining that the response body includes the predefined sequence, the gateway application may parse the response body to determine whether the HTTP response is an error response of interest. In response to determining that the HTTP response is the error response of interest, the gateway application may manage the HTTP response.
