I will look into it though I am not a pro in .htaccess and server side configuration :)

@mbabker strange, but I do not have such errors. Can you tell me how to reproduce?

A non-existent image file will do it.

Interesting I removed my avatar and just have

2013/11/02 20:32:44 [error] 2549#0: 715610 open() "/home/j-esports/domains/tracker.j-esports.com/public_html/images/avatars/b2z.png" failed (2: No such file or directory), client: 8.2**.***.175, server: www.tracker.j-esports.com, request: "GET /images/avatars/b2z.png HTTP/1.1", host: "tracker.j-esports.com", referrer: "http://tracker.j-esports.com/user/1"

May be that is because I am running Nginx as a proxy for Apache?

Good question. I know our server is apache and our custom error.log picks
up these messages.

Well need to test it on localhost then or on VM.

Still can't reproduce this on local machine as well as on VM. I have deleted /flags/en.gif - error.log is clean...

Could it be that it is only our highly advanced routing system that we just don't understand yet ? ...

I mean:

• index.php gives me a routing error.
  That would prevent index.php?your_param=my_hack or similar..
• robots.txt displays the robots.txt
• foo.txt ends up in a routing error as well as any non existent image.

Sure it does look strange in the error log.

In the end I would "sell" it as a security feature rather than a bug

I can't replicate this either. Is it still an issue?

Yep, just not something too high on the priority list.

[2013-11-28 10:04:42] JTracker.ERROR: 404 Bad Route {"message":"Unable to handle request for routefoo.txt."} {"url":"/foo.txt","ip":"X.X.X.X","http_method":"GET","server":"issues.joomla.org","referrer":"NULL"}

@mbabker is it still present?

Yep, just look at the error log.

Can you paste some last lines from it again plz ;)

One example:

[2014-08-30 02:47:06] JTracker.ERROR: 404 Bad Route [] {"url":"/images/avatars/joomla-jenkins.png","ip":"X.X.X.X","http_method":"GET","server":"issues.joomla.org","referrer":"http://issues.joomla.org/project/joomla-cms/stats","unique_id":"VAGBeUgdfEwAAEAsVUoAAAAL"}

Those are funny:

JTracker.ERROR: 404 Bad Route {"message":"Unable to handle request for route `administrator/index.php`."}

I'd still call it a feature
