302 Redirect

[soned]

Hi i don't use 302 redirect in my site, but i see that for the month of september, I got 200k hits for 302 redirects.

 

is this normal?

I think a better question would be whether it's 'expected' rather than 'normal'. A '302' redirect is also known as a 'temporary' redirect. There's a number of things that could be in place on your site that would perform such redirects. 200,000 hits returning a status of '302' does sound like a lot. Did you do anything to your web pages, .htaccess files, or CPanel that would cause these redirects?

i used to have a 301 redirect but i removed it already. but even before the 301 redirect, i checked my logs and i seem to have 10% of my hits going to 302 redirects. here is my new .htaccess:

 

php_value session.use_only_cookies 1

php_value session.use_trans_sid 0

 

 

its to remove the phpsessid in my links

Try downloading the raw log file, open it in a text editor - and search for 302. You will then be able to see the hits which are being redirected - which may give you a few clues.
