Hi,

We are getting either of the following error messages in error_log:

[error] [client ::1] client sent HTTP/1.1 request without hostname
(see RFC2616 section 14.23): /proxy/ssllogin, referer: <URL>

Or

[error] [client 127.0.0.1] request failed: error reading the headers,
referer: <URL>

& ultimately gets "Http 400 Page Cannot be Displayed" error page.

Further digging into the problem shows that even ap_rgetline_core()
[protocols.c] reads the HTTP header data wrongly. Some of the header
fields are either missing or overrun to other fields. Do anybody have
any idea on this ?

FYI, we are using Apache 2.2.6, PHP 5.2.9 & Openssl 0.9.8k for
building web-server.

Thanks & Regards,
Pravesh

That looks like a client that is not respecting the HTTP/1.1 protocol.

Yes, you are right. But our concern is why some header fields are
missing during communication ?

Going through the debug messages indicates that, the communication
started very well & few intial pages are displayed normally, but after
some time, HTTP header information gets corrupted (either missing or
overrun to other fields).

FYI, we are getting this issue only on IA64 setup, whereas same set of
components (Apache, PHP & Openssl) works fine on x86 setup.

Pravesh
