[users@httpd] Whole HTML pages in error log (1.3.x)
Our system has rapidly growing error logs filling up the disk. It appears
that much or all of the traffic to http://JonathansCorner.com/ is logged:
[Sun Jan 03 21:08:25 2010] [warn] Cannot get media type from 'text.html'
[Sun Jan 03 21:08:25 2010] [error] [client ##.##.##.##] <!doctype html
public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en">
[Sun Jan 03 21:08:25 2010] [error] [client ##.##.##.##] <html>
[Sun Jan 03 21:08:25 2010] [error] [client ##.##.##.##] <head>
[Sun Jan 03 21:08:25 2010] [error] [client ##.##.##.##] <link rel="icon"
href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
[Sun Jan 03 21:08:25 2010] [error] [client ##.##.##.##] --rest of webpage
snipped--
Why would Apache 1.3.x be pulling a media-type of text.html? The files that
would be pulled are straight, uninterpreted HTML pages--no PHP or
server-side parsing involved, and the string "text.html" does not appear in
httpd.conf.
What can or should I be doing so that the pages are served up text/html and
not logged to the error log in typical requests?

Thank you; I've gone through and corrected the bad DOCTYPE. I'm still
getting errors, though; I can't reproduce the errors by identifying
the page and loading it in Firefox, but I got:
[Sun Jan 24 19:23:12 2010] [error] [client ##.##.##.##] <!DOCTYPE html
PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
[Sun Jan 24 19:23:12 2010] [error] [client ##.##.##.##]
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
[Sun Jan 24 19:23:12 2010] [error] [client ##.##.##.##] <html
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
[Sun Jan 24 19:23:12 2010] [error] [client ##.##.##.##] <head>
[Sun Jan 24 19:23:12 2010] [error] [client ##.##.##.##] <link
rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
[Sun Jan 24 19:23:12 2010] [error] [client ##.##.##.##] --rest of
webpage snipped--
And the webpage (I checked) validates as 1.0 Transitional.
Are there ways some user-agent could make a request that would get a
webpage to be logged? Content negotiation?
Thanks,
