Yes, it is an error. But in this case, I, too, consider the error erroneous. A status code of 400 basically means that the request was syntactically b0rked. But, as I understand it, that's not the problem here: the request is syntactically fine - it fails because the server is misconfigured. Therefore a status code of 500 seems more appropriate to me. -- Regards mks --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
