[error] [client IP] File does not exist

First I want to apologize for having to ask, I have looked at this and searched the web but have no real confidence that I know how to fix it.

I am helping on a website and when I reviewed the error_log I found that it is logging thousands of errors which are similar. I've included a sample of the errors.

We do our best trying to solve our problems but sometimes need community support and who we want to thank in advance for your consideration.

The following error seems to happen constantly, from many different ip's...

Code:

[Thu Apr 22 01:02:06 2010] [error] [client (the ip address removed)] 

File does not exist: /home/virtual/site4/fst/var/www/html/colombia-news, 

referer: http://colombiareports.com/colombia-news/news/8710-bogota-homicide-rate-on-the-rise.html

Something on the page at

Code:

http://colombiareports.com/colombia-news/news/8710-bogota-homicide-rate-on-the-rise.html

is referencing a file at /home/virtual/site4/fst/var/www/html/colombia-news,

Obviously, columbiareports.com lives at site4 on your server. What CP system is it running ? Ensim ? It's not relevant to this, but I recognise the path.

Whether it's a bad link, or if that comma is actually the thing that is being linked I can't tell.

Check out that page to find the bad link. It's not necessarily a normal hyperlink, it could be an image, either as page design or content.

There are several page checkers on the net, use one on the page to find what's missing.

i.e. http://validator.w3.org/checklink

Great advice on using page link checker. There are three links which are getting 500 Internal Server Error's. I have passed these on to the our host as I can't find anything wrong with them. i.e. when I enter the url, it works...
