What does status=canceled for a resource mean in Chrome Developer Tools?

Question

What would cause a page to be canceled? I have a screenshot of the Chrome Developer Tools.

Answer 1

Here is another case of request being canceled by chrome, which I just encountered, which is not covered by any of answers up there.

In a nutshell
Self-signed certificate not being trusted on my android phone.

Details
We are in development/debug phase. The url is pointing to a self-signed host. The code is like:

location.href = 'https://some.host.com/some/path'

Chrome just canceled the request silently, leaving no clue for newbie to web development like myself to fix the issue. Once I downloaded and installed the certificate using the android phone the issue is gone.
