All,

Has anyone done any work with capturing MapServer errors in APACHE?
Specifically I want to be able to tell the difference between a
MapServer mis-config (textual error page) and a successful image
response.   The idea is to somehow log those textual message responses
in an automated way through Apache.

I’m pretty sure I could make my own custom logfile for MapServer (CGI)
calls, but not so sure about textual response vs raster response
filters, at least from the APACHE point of view . . ..  Is a MapServer
Text based error page considered for inclusion in the Apache error log or??

Thanks.

Have you checked your apache error log? I'm running perl as fastcgi, and I get things like:

mod_fcgid: stderr: maps.pl: msWMSLoadGetMapParams(): WMS server error. Invalid layer(s) given in the LAYERS parameter. A layer might be disabled for this request. Check wms/ows_enable_request settings.

The text vs raster response is only for sending errors to the browser, it wont affect whats written to the error log.

I think writing a thing to watch the error log is your best bet. You could "simulate" some errors and see how it shows up in the error log.
