Moz 4xx Errors (can't see why)

Permalink
Hi All,

New to this - apologies if in wrong section. We did a Moz site crawl and it threw up ~3 dozen 4xx errors. These were all pages which supposedly had bad links. But these pages were all documents - mostly PDFs and I haven't been able to find the bad links for love nor money. Does anyone know if this is simply a Moz error?

Many thanks

If those files are not accessible to unregistered users, they will throw a forbidden code for apps that don't have proper access.

So check permissions for those files

Hi,

Many thanks for the reply. Sorry to be unclear - the files themselves are accessible to anyone. The issue is that the pages containing the files THEMSELVES have (apparently) bad links. But we can't find those bad links - in fact to all intents and purposes they don't exist...

Do you have any further suggestions by any chance?

Kind REgards,
