HttpException represents an exception caused by an improper request of the end-user.

HttpException can be differentiated via its $statusCode property value which keeps a standard HTTP status code (e.g. 404, 500). Error handlers may use this status code to decide how to format the error page.

Throwing an HttpException like in the following example will result in the 404 page to be displayed.

    if ($item === null) { // item does not exist
        throw new \yii\web\HttpException(404, 'The requested Item could not be found.');
    }
