DownloadFile - What does error code mean

[NewsArchive]

When I use " Download File (HTTP) sometimes it returns error 505000000

Can someone tell me what it means?

Where do I find the list of errorcodes?

"5050" is a timeout error and "00000" means that the WinSock API
WSAGetLastError() returned 0. In other words, the download server did not
respond.

Here is a HTTP component error list:

Unfortunately, it's not possible to have a complete error code list because
different GetLastError or WSAGetLastError return codes can have completely
different meanings.

So the above is only a good starting point. But it only provides useful
information in combination with the GetLastError or WSAGetLastError return
codes (documented here)

So in fact, if there is an error code that can't be found in our knowledge
base (the online forums) then it's better to ask because we can then check
what kind of error this is.
