Re: [Erlyaws-list] Performance testing

[Leon S. <lp...@cw...>]

Change your uri to:

  --uri=/hellowww.html

Now, I am not extremely well versed on the URI standard, but my 
understanding is that your uri isn't technically legit.   Browsers 
always send an absolute uri to a webserver.  

This is something we should handle more gracefully so as not to pollute 
error logs.  We are working on improving URL handling.   We are aware of 
this issue but I was under the impression this had been fixed.  :-)

So this does bring up a question for the list... how should Yaws respond 
to such a uri?   Assuming my understanding of the standard is correct, 
I'm inclined to not pollute the standard and return a 403.

best,
leon
