We had a spell of downtime due to a hardware failure on or db server
(long story) of a few days. CFMX run fine in the meantime, but mostly
serving error templates (since a lot of the content is
database/dynamic). So for a few days there were "ooops! seems to be some
server error etc" returned for most requests on some sites.
Google seemed to have picked it up then, and the error message was
showing up in the text excerpts.
Now -- I assume these pages returned a http 200 status code, does anyone
know if it would have worked better with google (and other robots) with
returning a 500 (internal server error) status code?
Wouldn't it make sense, by the way, to return 500 (through cfheadeR) for
all caught exceptions (not for validation errors and things like that
though).
