|
|
|
|
<p>This module provides for flexible logging of client
|
|
requests. Logs are written in a customizable format, and may be
|
|
written directly to a file, or to an external program.
|
|
Conditional logging is provided so that individual requests may
|
|
be included or excluded from the logs based on characteristics
|
|
of the request.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Three directives are provided by this module:
|
|
<code>TransferLog</code> to create a log file,
|
|
<code>LogFormat</code> to set a custom format, and
|
|
<code>CustomLog</code> to define a log file and format in one
|
|
step. The <code>TransferLog</code> and <code>CustomLog</code>
|
|
directives can be used multiple times in each server to cause
|
|
each request to be logged to multiple files.</p>
|
|
<h2>Directives</h2><ul><li><a href="#cookielog">CookieLog</a></li><li><a href="#customlog">CustomLog</a></li><li><a href="#logformat">LogFormat</a></li><li><a href="#transferlog">TransferLog</a></li></ul><p><strong>See also </strong></p><ul><li><a href="../logs.html">Apache Log Files</a></li></ul><h2><a name="formats">Custom Log Formats</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The format argument to the <code>LogFormat</code> and
|
|
<code>CustomLog</code> directives is a string. This string is
|
|
logged to the log file for each request. It can contain literal
|
|
characters copied into the log files and the c-type control
|
|
characters "\n" and "\t" to represent new-lines and tabs.
|
|
Literal quotes and back-slashes should be escaped with
|
|
back-slashes.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The characteristics of the request itself are logged by
|
|
placing "%" directives in the format string, which are replaced
|
|
in the log file by the values as follows:</p>

<p>The "..." can be nothing at all (<em>e.g.</em>, <code>"%h %u
|
|
%r %s %b"</code>), or it can indicate conditions for inclusion
|
|
of the item (which will cause it to be replaced with "-" if the
|
|
condition is not met). The forms of condition are a list of
|
|
HTTP status codes, which may or may not be preceded by "!".
|
|
Thus, "%400,501{User-agent}i" logs User-agent: on 400 errors
|
|
and 501 errors (Bad Request, Not Implemented) only;
|
|
"%!200,304,302{Referer}i" logs Referer: on all requests which
|
|
did <strong>not</strong> return some sort of normal status.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Note that there is no escaping performed on the strings from
|
|
%...r, %...i and %...o. This is mainly to comply with the
|
|
requirements of the Common Log Format. This implies that
|
|
clients can insert control characters into the log, so care
|
|
should be taken when dealing with raw log files.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Some commonly used log format strings are:</p>
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt>Common Log Format (CLF)</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd><code>"%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b"</code></dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>Common Log Format with Virtual Host</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd><code>"%v %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b"</code></dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>NCSA extended/combined log format</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd><code>"%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\"
|
|
\"%{User-agent}i\""</code></dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>Referer log format</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd><code>"%{Referer}i -> %U"</code></dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>Agent (Browser) log format</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd><code>"%{User-agent}i"</code></dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
<p>Note that the canonical <a href="core.html#servername">ServerName</a> and <a href="mpm_common.html#listen">Listen</a> of the server serving the
|
|
request are used for <code>%v</code> and <code>%p</code>
|
|
respectively. This happens regardless of the <a href="core.html#usecanonicalname">UseCanonicalName</a> setting
|
|
because otherwise log analysis programs would have to duplicate
|
|
the entire vhost matching algorithm in order to decide what
|
|
host really served the request.</p>

<p>See the <a href="../misc/security_tips.html#serverroot">security tips</a>

|
|
if the directory where logfiles are stored is writable by

anyone other than the user that starts the server.</p>

|
|
<p>The <code class="directive">CustomLog</code> directive is used to
|
|
log requests to the server. A log format is specified, and the
|
|
logging can optionally be made conditional on request
|
|
characteristics using environment variables.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The first argument, which specifies the location to which
|
|
the logs will be written, can take on one of the following two
|
|
types of values:</p>
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt><em>file</em></dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>A filename, relative to the <a href="core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a>.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt><em>pipe</em></dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>The pipe character "<code>|</code>", followed by the path
|
|
to a program to receive the log information on its standard
|
|
input. <strong>Security:</strong> if a program is used, then
|
|
it will be run under the user who started httpd. This will be
|
|
root if the server was started by root; be sure that the
|
|
program is secure.</dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
<p>The second argument specifies what will be written to the
|
|
log file. It can specify either a <em>nickname</em> defined by
|
|
a previous <a href="#logformat">LogFormat</a> directive, or it
|
|
can be an explicit <em>format</em> string as described in the
|
|
<a href="#formats">log formats</a> section.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For example, the following two sets of directives have
|
|
exactly the same effect:</p>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><code>
|
|
# CustomLog with format nickname<br>
|
|
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" common<br>
|
|
CustomLog logs/access_log common<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
# CustomLog with explicit format string<br>
|
|
CustomLog logs/access_log "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b"<br>
|
|
</code></td></tr></table></blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<p>The third argument is optional and allows the decision on
|
|
whether or not to log a particular request to be based on the
|
|
presence or absence of a particular variable in the server
|
|
environment. If the specified <a href="../env.html">environment
|
|
variable</a> is set for the request (or is not set, in the case
|
|
of a '<code>env=!<em>name</em></code>' clause), then the
|
|
request will be logged.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Environment variables can be set on a <em>per</em>-request
|
|
basis using the <code><a href="mod_setenvif.html">mod_setenvif</a></code>
|
|
and/or <code><a href="mod_rewrite.html">mod_rewrite</a></code> modules. For
|
|
example, if you want to record requests for all GIF
|
|
images on your server in a separate logfile but not in your main
|
|
log, you can use:</p>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><code>
|
|
SetEnvIf Request_URI \.gif$ gif-image<br>
|
|
CustomLog gif-requests.log common env=gif-image<br>
|
|
CustomLog nongif-requests.log common env=!gif-image
|
|
</code></td></tr></table></blockquote>

</td></tr></table></td></tr></table>
|
|
<p>This directive specifies the format of the access log
|
|
file.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The <code class="directive">LogFormat</code> directive can take one of two
|
|
forms. In the first form, where only one argument is specified,
|
|
this directive sets the log format which will be used by logs
|
|
specified in subsequent <code class="directive">TransferLog</code>
|
|
directives. The single argument can specify an explicit
|
|
<em>format</em> as discussed in <a href="#formats">custom log
|
|
formats</a> section above. Alternatively, it can use a
|
|
<em>nickname</em> to refer to a log format defined in a
|
|
previous <code class="directive">LogFormat</code> directive as described
|
|
below.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The second form of the <code class="directive">LogFormat</code>
|
|
directive associates an explicit <em>format</em> with a
|
|
<em>nickname</em>. This <em>nickname</em> can then be used in
|
|
subsequent <code class="directive">LogFormat</code> or
|
|
<code class="directive">CustomLog</code> directives rather than
|
|
repeating the entire format string. A
|
|
<code class="directive">LogFormat</code>
|
|
directive which defines a nickname <strong>does nothing
|
|
else</strong> -- that is, it <em>only</em> defines the
|
|
nickname, it doesn't actually apply the format and make it the
|
|
default. Therefore, it will not affect subsequent
|
|
<code class="directive">TransferLog</code> directives.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For example:</p>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><code>LogFormat "%v %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b"
|
|
vhost_common</code></td></tr></table></blockquote>

|
<p>This directive has exactly the same arguments and effect as
|
|
the <code class="directive">CustomLog</code> directive, with the
|
|
exception that it does not allow the log format to be specified
|
|
explicitly or for conditional logging of requests. Instead, the
|
|
log format is determined by the most recently specified
|
|
specified <code class="directive">LogFormat</code> directive (which
|
|
does not define a nickname). Common Log Format is used if no
|
|
other format has been specified.</p>
|

<p>Example:</p>
|
|
