APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
Customer is using IHS 1.3.19.4 on Solaris and is loading the
mod_snmp which appears to causing a core dump condition.
"segfault caused by mod_snmp assuming that r->uri was set, but
not set on this path since client connection timed
out before request was completely read"
Local fix
N/A
Problem summary
Seg Fault in mod_snmp.so, due to a timeout condition.
The code in snmp that is called to log a request expects  the
request block to contain a VALID URI.
In the case of a Failed READ the URI is NOT there and the SNMP c
fails with segfault on COPY of the request record URI
Problem conclusion
Added Check in SNMP LOGGER code "http_log_Document" to check for
NULL URI and if null  incert string "UNKNOWN" into  buffer for S
MIB recording
Temporary fix Comments
