The RANGE_MISSING_UNIT
error occurs when the unit identifier of the Range
header in a request is missing. The Range
header is used to request a specific portion of a resource from the server, and the unit identifier indicates the unit in which the range is specified, such as bytes.
RANGE_MISSING_UNIT:
Requested Range Not Satisfiable
I'm encountering an error and reviewing the docs at /flg~eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9._f7-_v0.H1pbXxc_pwT_uVOl9HPQTOSEJsJVY_sGnFnlG1GD0mM/docs/errors/RANGE_MISSING_UNIT to understand what's happening.
Please help me resolve this by:
1. **Suggest the fix**: Analyze my codebase context and propose what needs to be changed to resolve this error
2. **Explain the root cause**: Break down why this error occurred:
- What was the code actually doing vs. what it needed to do?
- What conditions triggered this specific error?
- What misconception or oversight led to this?
3. **Teach the concept**: Help me understand the underlying principle:
- Why does this error exist and what is it protecting me from?
- What's the correct mental model for this concept?
- How does this fit into the broader framework/language design?
4. **Show warning signs**: Help me recognize this pattern in the future:
- What should I look out for that might cause this again?
- Are there similar mistakes I might make in related scenarios?
- What code smells or patterns indicate this issue?
5. **Discuss alternatives**: Explain if there are different valid approaches and their trade-offs
My goal is to fix the immediate issue while building lasting understanding so I can avoid and resolve similar errors independently in the future.
To troubleshoot this error, follow these steps:
- Specify unit identifier: Ensure that the
Range
header in your request specifies a unit identifier like bytes
- Check configuration: If the
Range
header values are being set automatically by some part of your system, check the configuration to ensure the unit identifier is being included
- Verify syntax: Verify that the syntax of the
Range
header is correct and follows the format unit=range-start-range-end
, for example, bytes=0-999
- Debugging: If the error persists, log the
Range
header values in your server logs to debug and understand what values are being sent in requests
