Description Robert Rothenberg 2024-01-04 16:26:21 UTC 
I have set up an ErrorDocument with directs to local documents for a virtual host, e.g.

  ErrorDocument 400 /static/errors/generic.html
  ErrorDocument 403 /static/errors/generic.html

If I make a HEAD request, the server sends the result with a non-zero Content-Length. And it logs that number of bytes were sent.

Some utilities like curl will show an error that the transfer was closed with bytes remaining to be read.
