# HTTP 102 Processing

**Summary** — The server has received the request and is processing it, but no response is available yet.

## What it means

HTTP 102 Processing (WebDAV) is sent to prevent the client from timing out while the server processes a complex request. It indicates that the server received the full request and is working on it.

## Common causes

- Long-running WebDAV operations
- Complex server-side processing
- Batch operations that take significant time

## How to fix

- This is normal for long operations — no fix needed
- If processing takes too long, consider async processing with callbacks

## SEO impact

No SEO impact. Rarely encountered by search engine crawlers.

## Monitoring tip

Frequent 102 responses may indicate server performance issues. LemWatch tracks response times to help identify slow endpoints.
