http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28832 Description of %b parameter in logdoes not conform to reality Summary: Description of %b parameter in logdoes not conform to reality Product: Apache httpd-2.0 Version: 2.0-HEAD Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Documentation AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The %b parameter, as described in both docs/logs.html and docs/mod/mod_log_config.html has a different behavior as described. The description in the latter is: %.. B: Bytes sent, excluding HTTP headers. %...b: Bytes sent, excluding HTTP headers. In CLF format i.e. a '-' rather than a 0 when no bytes are sent. But according to <a href="/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8996">Bug 8996</a>, the result in the case of fixed length objects is the size of the object. I am not sure what the result is for dynamic content. Quoting the resolution of the cited bug: "Use mod_logio instead (%I and %O). It will report the correct values. %b or %B have broken semantics that we will not be fixing. Some rely on having the %b and %B be what was intended to be written rather than what was really written - don't ask - it was a major point of contention on the development lists." --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
