Hello everyone! I'm facing a problem. Maybe you can tell me something. Deployed php elastic apm agent. In the logs I fix errors

```auto
$_SERVER does not contain `HTTP_HOST' key
Failed to discover path part of URL to derive transaction name - using default transaction name
$_SERVER does not contain `REQUEST_URI' key

```

Errors appear when scraping metrics by `php-fpm-exporter` from endpoint `tcp://127.0.0.0.1:9000/php-fpm-status`  
In general, as I understand, it is logical, apm sees the variables, because the connection goes to the socket(9000) and is scolded, hence the exception of this uri in the config `transaction_ignore_urls` does not work.  
Is there any other way to exclude these transactions from apm?

Hi @KleinenberG - welcome to the community!

If we make it possible to include default transaction name (i.e., `Unnamed transaction`) in `transaction_ignore_urls`'s value will it solve your use case?
