I wouldn't call it suspicious. It obviously timed out getting data with an
existing TCP connection to your server (how long do you have keep-alives
enabled?),

# KeepAlive: Whether or not to allow persistent connections (more than
# one request per connection). Set to "Off" to deactivate.
#
KeepAlive On

#
# MaxKeepAliveRequests: The maximum number of requests to allow
# during a persistent connection. Set to 0 to allow an unlimited amount.
# We recommend you leave this number high, for maximum performance.
#
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100

#
# KeepAliveTimeout: Number of seconds to wait for the next request from the
# same client on the same connection.
#
KeepAliveTimeout 15



but it's possible it was hung waiting for a response from Tomcat
too, since Apache won't log anything if it doesn't complete the HTTP
exchange.


hmmm...from my ssl_engine log ... several successive connections... nothing in my apache access or error logs (nothing means literally no entries with the same timestamps)

... and apparently my Tomcat isn't logging anything... hmmm....

since they've seen this once per day, over each of the last two days.... suggestions on how to change my logging parameters, to perhaps catch a bit more info?
