Package: awstats
Followup-For: Bug #706076
Both workarounds,
- Use NbOfLinesForCorruptedLog in awstats
- Adopt apache log configuration to hide such messages
have problematic side effects. I agree that the right solution is to:
(1) log invalid request names only on 400 ("Bad Request") responses
and to
(2) make AWstats deal with at least these log lines
I'm aware that (2) is covered by #626185 and has been forwarded to
upsteam. Unforunately, it hasn't been solved by upstream for more
than 3.5 years.
Nevertheless, I'm glad to read that at least (1) will be solved in
Debian/Jessie, leading to log entries such as:
::1 - - [18/Jan/2015:14:43:27 +0300] "\x16\x03" 400 0 "-" "-"
Any chance that this behaviour will be backported to Debian/Wheezy?
Do you believe it is worth the effort to escalate this to the apache2
package?

I'm very sorry for this, but at the time of that writing, #706076 was
unarchived but still closed, so I was unable to extend to that report
(with "reportbug"). Remember, you reopened #706076 with this very
posting.

I wonder how this matches your appeal in #626185 to be polite and
helpful.
