apache 2.4 CustomLog based by response size
To create a CustomLog in Apache 2.4 based on the response size, you can use the %B
format string in your log format. Here's an example configuration:
perlLogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %B" customlog
CustomLog "logs/access_log" customlog
In this example, the %B
format string will log the size of the response in bytes. The resulting log format will include the IP address of the client (%h
), the RFC 1413 identity of the client (%l
), the username of the client (%u
), the date and time of the request (%t
), the request line (\"%r\"
), the HTTP status code of the response (%>s
), and the size of the response (%B
).
You can customize the log format to include other data as needed by adding or removing format strings from the LogFormat
directive. You can also specify a different location for the log file by changing the path in the CustomLog
directive.
Note that the %B
format string may not be available in all versions of Apache. If %B
is not available, you can try using %O
instead, which logs the size of the response in bytes as sent by the server.
