Hi, I finally got around to finish the remaining bits of the configurable error log format thing. The current version is at
http://people.apache.org/~sf/errorlog_format_v2.diff I intend to commit it to trunk after I have written some docs and 2.3.7 is tagged. It duplicates some code from mod_log_config. If there are enough people interested in unifying the log formaters for access and error logs, we can do that work in trunk. Personally, I don't think it's necessary for 2.4. I have changed the configuration syntax with some of the suggestions form the last thread. The log format is implicitly split into fields at non-whitespace to whitespace transitions. A backslash before a space will prevent this behaviour. Percent-space '% ' can be used as zero-width field separator. If a format item does not produce output, the whole field is omitted. This behaviour can be changed with modifiers: "-" to log a "-" instead. "+" to omit the whole line instead (useful for once per request logging). For normal log lines, there is now only one format that contains %M for the actual log message. The separate prefix and suffix configuration is gone. For example, the configuration ErrorLogFormat connection "[%{uc}t] [C:%{c}L] local\ %a remote\ %A" ErrorLogFormat request "[%{uc}t] [R:%L] Request %k on C:%{c}L pid:%P tid:%T" ErrorLogFormat request "[%{uc}t] [R:%L] UA:'%+{User-Agent}i'" ErrorLogFormat request "[%{uc}t] [R:%L] Referer:'%+{Referer}i'" ErrorLogFormat "[%{uc}t] [%-m:%-l] [R:%L] [C:%{C}L] %M" gives [2010-08-18 20:10:11.135760] [C:CFn8+QwXPQo] local 127.0.0.1:43845 remote 127.0.0.1:8081 [2010-08-18 20:10:11.135783] [R:21j8+QwXPQo] Request 0 on C:CFn8+QwXPQo pid:11653 [2010-08-18 20:10:11.135788] [R:21j8+QwXPQo] UA:'curl/7.21.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.21.1 OpenSSL/0.9.8o zlib/1.2.3.4 libidn/1.18 libssh2/1.2.6' [2010-08-18 20:10:11.153439] [core:error] [R:21j8+QwXPQo] File does not exist: /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/xxx Cheers, Stefan
