![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description IHS 2.0.47 mod_speling is being passed a non-file request to check. mod_speling incorrectly assumed that a filename had been provided in the internal request record, and crashed when trying to scan it. mod_speling can't check the spelling of anything but real file requests. It needs to decline to handle requests like this.Local fix N/AProblem summary mod_speling needed to check that the filename field in the Apache API request record was set before reading it. This filename field will not be set for WebSphere requests. Because this check was bypassed, mod_speling could segfault when a WebSphere request was received.Problem conclusion mod_speling has been modified to skip processing of requests which do not have the filename information (such as WebSphere requests).Temporary fix Comments
