Apache Module mod_log_config

Описание:Logging of the requests made to the server
Статус:Base
Идентификатор модуля:log_config_module
Исходный файл:mod_log_config.c

Summary

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.

Three directives are provided by this module: TransferLog to create a log file, LogFormat to set a custom format, and CustomLog to define a log file and format in one step. The TransferLog and CustomLog directives can be used multiple times in each server to cause each request to be logged to multiple files.

Custom Log Formats

The format argument to the LogFormat and CustomLog directives is a string. This string is used to log each request to the log file. It can contain literal characters copied into the log files and the C-style control characters "\n" and "\t" to represent new-lines and tabs. Literal quotes and back-slashes should be escaped with back-slashes.

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:

Format String Description
%% The percent sign (Apache 2.0.44 and later)
%...a Remote IP-address
%...A Local IP-address
%...B Size of response in bytes, excluding HTTP headers.
%...b Size of response in bytes, excluding HTTP headers. In CLF format, i.e. a '-' rather than a 0 when no bytes are sent.
%...{Foobar}C The contents of cookie Foobar in the request sent to the server.
%...D The time taken to serve the request, in microseconds.
%...{FOOBAR}e The contents of the environment variable FOOBAR
%...f Filename
%...h Remote host
%...H The request protocol
%...{Foobar}i The contents of Foobar: header line(s) in the request sent to the server.
%...l Remote logname (from identd, if supplied). This will return a dash unless IdentityCheck is set On.
%...m The request method
%...{Foobar}n The contents of note Foobar from another module.
%...{Foobar}o The contents of Foobar: header line(s) in the reply.
%...p The canonical port of the server serving the request
%...P The process ID of the child that serviced the request.
%...{format}P The process ID or thread id of the child that serviced the request. Valid formats are pid and tid. (Apache 2.0.46 and later)
%...q The query string (prepended with a ? if a query string exists, otherwise an empty string)
%...r First line of request
%...s Status. For requests that got internally redirected, this is the status of the *original* request --- %...>s for the last.
%...t Time the request was received (standard english format)
%...{format}t The time, in the form given by format, which should be in strftime(3) format. (potentially localized)
%...T The time taken to serve the request, in seconds.
%...u Remote user (from auth; may be bogus if return status (%s) is 401)
%...U The URL path requested, not including any query string.
%...v The canonical ServerName of the server serving the request.
%...V The server name according to the UseCanonicalName setting.
%...X Connection status when response is completed:
X = connection aborted before the response completed.
+ = connection may be kept alive after the response is sent.
- = connection will be closed after the response is sent.

(This directive was %...c in late versions of Apache 1.3, but this conflicted with the historical ssl %...{var}c syntax.)

%...I Bytes received, including request and headers, cannot be zero. You need to enable mod_logio to use this.
%...O Bytes sent, including headers, cannot be zero. You need to enable mod_logio to use this.

The "..." can be nothing at all (e.g., "%h %u %r %s %b"), 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 not return some sort of normal status.

The modifiers "<" and ">" can be used for requests that have been internally redirected to choose whether the original or final (respectively) request should be consulted. By default, the % directives %s, %U, %T, %D, and %r look at the original request while all others look at the final request. So for example, %>s can be used to record the final status of the request and %<u can be used to record the original authenticated user on a request that is internally redirected to an unauthenticated resource.

Note that in httpd 2.0 versions prior to 2.0.46, no escaping was performed on the strings from %...r, %...i and %...o. This was mainly to comply with the requirements of the Common Log Format. This implied that clients could insert control characters into the log, so you had to be quite careful when dealing with raw log files.

For security reasons, starting with 2.0.46, non-printable and other special characters are escaped mostly by using \xhh sequences, where hh stands for the hexadecimal representation of the raw byte. Exceptions from this rule are " and \ which are escaped by prepending a backslash, and all whitespace characters which are written in their C-style notation (\n, \t etc).

Note that in httpd 2.0, unlike 1.3, the %b and %B format strings do not represent the number of bytes sent to the client, but simply the size in bytes of the HTTP response (which will differ, for instance, if the connection is aborted, or if SSL is used). The %O format provided by mod_logio will log the actual number of bytes sent over the network.

Some commonly used log format strings are:

Common Log Format (CLF)
"%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b"
Common Log Format with Virtual Host
"%v %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b"
NCSA extended/combined log format
"%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-agent}i\""
Referer log format
"%{Referer}i -> %U"
Agent (Browser) log format
"%{User-agent}i"

Note that the canonical ServerName and Listen of the server serving the request are used for %v and %p respectively. This happens regardless of the UseCanonicalName 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.

Security Considerations

See the security tips document for details on why your security could be compromised if the directory where logfiles are stored is writable by anyone other than the user that starts the server.

BufferedLogs Директива

Описание:Buffer log entries in memory before writing to disk
Синтаксис:BufferedLogs On|Off
По умолчанию:BufferedLogs Off
Контекст:server config
Статус:Base
Модуль:mod_log_config
Совместимость:Available in versions 2.0.41 and later.

The BufferedLogs directive causes mod_log_config to store several log entries in memory and write them together to disk, rather than writing them after each request. On some systems, this may result in more efficient disk access and hence higher performance. It may be set only once for the entire server; it cannot be configured per virtual-host.

This directive is experimental and should be used with caution.

CookieLog Директива

Описание:Sets filename for the logging of cookies
Синтаксис:CookieLog filename
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Base
Модуль:mod_log_config
Совместимость:This directive is deprecated.

The CookieLog directive sets the filename for logging of cookies. The filename is relative to the ServerRoot. This directive is included only for compatibility with mod_cookies, and is deprecated.

CustomLog Директива

Описание:Sets filename and format of log file
Синтаксис:CustomLog file|pipe format|nickname [env=[!]environment-variable]
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Base
Модуль:mod_log_config

The CustomLog 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.

The first argument, which specifies the location to which the logs will be written, can take one of the following two types of values:

file
A filename, relative to the ServerRoot.
pipe
The pipe character "|", followed by the path to a program to receive the log information on its standard input.

Security:

If a program is used, then it will be run as the user who started httpd. This will be root if the server was started by root; be sure that the program is secure.

Примечание

When entering a file path on non-Unix platforms, care should be taken to make sure that only forward slashed are used even though the platform may allow the use of back slashes. In general it is a good idea to always use forward slashes throughout the configuration files.

The second argument specifies what will be written to the log file. It can specify either a nickname defined by a previous LogFormat directive, or it can be an explicit format string as described in the log formats section.

For example, the following two sets of directives have exactly the same effect:

# CustomLog with format nickname
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" common
CustomLog logs/access_log common

# CustomLog with explicit format string
CustomLog logs/access_log "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b"

The third argument is optional and controls whether or not to log a particular request based on the presence or absence of a particular variable in the server environment. If the specified environment variable is set for the request (or is not set, in the case of a 'env=!name' clause), then the request will be logged.

Environment variables can be set on a per-request basis using the mod_setenvif and/or mod_rewrite 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:

SetEnvIf Request_URI \.gif$ gif-image
CustomLog gif-requests.log common env=gif-image
CustomLog nongif-requests.log common env=!gif-image

Or, to reproduce the behavior of the old RefererIgnore directive, you might use the following:

SetEnvIf Referer example\.com localreferer
CustomLog referer.log referer env=!localreferer

LogFormat Директива

Описание:Describes a format for use in a log file
Синтаксис:LogFormat format|nickname [nickname]
По умолчанию:LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b"
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Base
Модуль:mod_log_config

This directive specifies the format of the access log file.

The LogFormat 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 TransferLog directives. The single argument can specify an explicit format as discussed in the custom log formats section above. Alternatively, it can use a nickname to refer to a log format defined in a previous LogFormat directive as described below.

The second form of the LogFormat directive associates an explicit format with a nickname. This nickname can then be used in subsequent LogFormat or CustomLog directives rather than repeating the entire format string. A LogFormat directive that defines a nickname does nothing else -- that is, it only defines the nickname, it doesn't actually apply the format and make it the default. Therefore, it will not affect subsequent TransferLog directives. In addition, LogFormat cannot use one nickname to define another nickname. Note that the nickname should not contain percent signs (%).

Пример

LogFormat "%v %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" vhost_common

TransferLog Директива

Описание:Specify location of a log file
Синтаксис:TransferLog file|pipe
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Base
Модуль:mod_log_config

This directive has exactly the same arguments and effect as the CustomLog 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 LogFormat directive which does not define a nickname. Common Log Format is used if no other format has been specified.

Пример

LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-agent}i\""
TransferLog logs/access_log
