Apache Tomcat/8.5.53

The Apache HTTPD log file says:

The Tomcat says:

- - [20/Mar/2020:10:56:24 +0100] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 403 630



The server on which all is running is:

Linux 5.3.0-42-generic #34~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Feb 28 13:42:26 UTC 2020 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux



There is no new entry in the Apache HTTPD error.log concering these requests.



Help is appreciated

And just to make diagnosis a bit quicker : does that 403 error page look like 
an Apache httpd page, or a tomcat page ? (they look quite differemt in style).



Also, can you check both the httpd logs, and the tomcat logs for that request, 
and check what they say ?  (compare by timestamnp and URI)



Also, under what OS does your front-end httpd run ?
