Directives

CustomLog
and LogFormat.
Log file format
The log file contains a separate line for each refer. Each line has the format
uri -> document
where uri is the (%-escaped) URI for the document that references the one requested
by the client, and document is the (%-decoded) local URL to the document being
referred to.
Syntax:
RefererIgnore string [string] ...
Context:
server config, virtual host
Status:
Extension
Module:
mod_log_referer
The RefererIgnore directive adds to the list of strings to ignore in Referer headers. If
any of the strings in the list is contained in the Referer header, then no referrer
information will be logged for the request. Example:
RefererIgnore www.ncsa.uiuc.edu
This avoids logging references from www.ncsa.uiuc.edu.
Syntax:
RefererLog file-pipe
Default:
RefererLog logs/referer_log
Context:
server config, virtual host
Status:
Extension
Module:
mod_log_referer
The RefererLog directive sets the name of the file to which the server will log the Referer
header of incoming requests. File-pipe is one of
- A filename
- A filename relative to the
ServerRoot.
- `|' followed by a command
- A program to receive the referrer log information on its standard input. Note that a new
program will not be started for a VirtualHost if it inherits the RefererLog from the main
server.
Security: if a program is used, then it will be run under the user who
started httpd. This will be root if the server was started by root; be sure that the program
is secure.
Security: 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.
This directive is provided for compatibility with NCSA 1.4.
