0006062: strange HTTP methods
Hi,
We are currently using the resin 4.0.47 professional edition as the web container for our ACS platform. And from the access.log, we found strange HTTP methods that resin has reported. In addition, it looks like resin replied either 200 or 204 in most of the cases.

Is this a known issue that has been reported by others? Please let us know your thoughts,
Thanks,
Qin

The same issue is also seen in Resin 4.0.36 and 4.0.20.

Assuming this isn't a duplicate of 0006038, Resin is reporting the HTTP methods in the request. If the servlet returns the same results for all HTTP methods, i.e. doesn't check for "GET", "POST", etc. then the access.log will show the unusual method.

Resin itself never returns a 204. That's always a servlet response with HttpServletResponse.setStatus or sendError.
