  Failed requests are those with codes in the 400's (error in request)
or 500's
  (server error). They come about for a variety of reasons, but the most
common
  are when the requested file is not found or is read-protected.

One of the fields in your Logfile is (or should be) Status code. This
will normally be 200 (for a successful request) or 304 (for an already
cached request), but when a user requests a page that doesn't exist on
your website, the code will be a failure code (404), or if your server
encounters an error in trying to respond, the Status code will be a 500
series error. These failed requests are listed in the failure report.

If your failure report indicates that there are consistent failures from
clients requesting a specific file, you may learn that some other
website has a bad link to your website. If you can't fix the link on
someone elses website, you may decide to make those requests work by
putting a copy of the requested file at the address that is being used
or (better) put a redirection there, to redirect those users to that
location.
