Description
503 Service Unavailable (The server is not ready to handle the request. Common causes are a server that is down for maintenance or that is overloaded)
The normal behavior for a client for these particular error codes would be to wait and then re-try the request again, rather than than assuming things just failed and never re-trying again, which in the case of our client would result in a missing tile in the data.
if there is an actual mistake in the script like a syntax error or bad parameters for a function, the server should return a 400 Bad Request error (not a 500).
Basically, any 500 Internal Server Error returned from the server would be considered by clients an unhandled condition / bug and potential security risk that should be reported and needs to be fixed.
