Abstract

A computer-implemented method of providing a predefined content to a user includes generating an error message at a user device, the error message based on unavailability of the predefined content to the user at a first instance of time. The method also includes receiving one or more error messages by a server, the one or more error messages being received from one or more user devices. Further, the method includes creating a list of one or more parameters by the server. Furthermore, the method includes providing the predefined content to the user at a second instance of time based on a predefined threshold of the one or more parameters in the list.

Claims

1. A computer-implemented method of providing a predefined content to a user, the computer-implemented method comprising:

generating an error message at a user device, wherein the error message is based on unavailability of the predefined content to the user at a first instance of time;

receiving one or more error messages by a server, wherein the one or more error messages are received from one or more user devices;

creating a list of one or more parameters by the server; and

providing the predefined content to the user at a second instance of time based on a predefined threshold of the one or more parameters in the list.

2. The computer implemented method of claim 1, wherein the error message comprises a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) error message, wherein the HTTP error message comprises at least one of a HTTP client side error message and a HTTP server side error message.

3. The computer implemented method of claim 1, wherein the one or more user devices comprises at least one of a laptop, a mobile phone, and a tablet personal computer.

4. The computer implemented method of claim 1, wherein the receiving the one or more error messages comprises:

storing the one or more error messages in the server.

5. The computer implemented method of claim 1, wherein the list of one or more parameters comprises at least one of a uniform resource locator (URL) of the predefined content, information on number of times a user clicked on the predefined content available in the URL and received an error message, and information on the number of users receiving an error message.

6. The computer implemented method of claim 1, wherein the one or more parameters in the list are prioritized based on the predefined threshold.

7. The computer implemented method of claim 1, wherein the list is maintained for a predefined time.

8. A computer program product stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium that when executed by a processor, performs a method of providing a predefined content to a user, comprising:

generating an error message at a user device, wherein the error message is based on unavailability of the predefined content to the user at a first instance of time;

receiving one or more error messages by a server, wherein the one or more error messages are received from one or more user devices;

creating a list of one or more parameters by the server; and

providing the predefined content to the user at a second instance of time based on a predefined threshold of the one or more parameters in the list.

9. The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the error message comprises a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) error message, wherein the HTTP error message comprises at least one of a HTTP client side error message and a HTTP server side error message.

10. The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the one or more user devices comprises at least one of a laptop, a mobile phone, and a tablet personal computer.

11. The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the receiving the one or more error messages comprises:

storing the one or more error messages in the server.

12. The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the list of one or more parameters comprises at least one of a uniform resource locator (URL) of the predefined content, information on number of times a user clicked on the predefined content available in the URL and received an error message, and information on the number of users receiving an error message.

13. The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the one or more parameters in the list are prioritized based on the predefined threshold.

14. The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the list is maintained for a predefined time.

15. A system for providing a predefined content to a user, the system comprising:

an error module for generating an error message at a user device, wherein the error message is based on unavailability of the predefined content to the user at a first instance of time;

a receiver module for receiving one or more error messages by a server, wherein the one or more error messages are received from one or more user devices;

a list creation module for creating a list of one or more parameters by the server; and

a content module for providing the predefined content to the user at a second instance of time based on a predefined threshold of the one or more parameters in the list.

16. The system of claim 15, wherein the list of one or more parameters comprises at least one of a uniform resource locator (URL) of the predefined content, information on number of times a user clicked on the predefined content available in the URL and received an error message, and information on the number of users receiving an error message.

17. The system of claim 15, wherein the one or more parameters in the list are prioritized based on the predefined threshold.

18. The system of claim 15, wherein the list is maintained for a predefined time.
