HTTP 301 Moved Permanently

In short: The requested page has been moved permanently to a new address.

In more detail: The server answers with a redirect. Browsers and search engines remember the new address.

In Depth

Possible causes

• Page moved, domain changed, http switched to https.
• Old address redirected after a relaunch.

Solutions

1. As a visitor: the browser follows automatically, no manual action is needed.
2. As an operator: check the target address and avoid chains of several redirects.
3. Clear the browser cache if an old redirect is stuck.
