The problem is that mod_rewrite is taking what we *know* to be a valid URL (based on the ErrorDocuments directive) and translating it to an invalid one that generates a 400. Fix that. Even if the ErrorDocument were not to exist, it'd generate a 404 which doesn't drop the connection and we'd send the canned 404. Perhaps doing a rewrite on an error is wrong too. In fact, I'd say that the original BAD_REQUEST (400) coming from mod_rewrite should really be a 404. Problem solved. Regardless, this change must be reverted. -- justin
