Final answer:
A GET 404 error indicates that the requested resource does not exist on the server. It is an HTTP status code distinct from a 403 error, which means the content is forbidden, often due to traffic or configuration issues.
Step-by-step explanation:
A GET 404 error indicates that the requested resource does not exist on the server, and therefore cannot be retrieved. This error is an HTTP status code that signifies the inability to find the web page or resource that the client (web browser) has requested.
The error could mean that the page has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable, but in any case, is not currently accessible under the URL entered. It differs from the 403 ERROR, which implies that the request is valid, but the server is refusing to respond due to permissions.
A 403 error indicates the content is forbidden - implying that the server understood the request but refuses to authorize it, which could be due to multiple reasons such as too much traffic or a configuration issue as described in the CloudFront documentation.
