[users@httpd] Android device ID not show on access_log
Good Evening Everybody, I would like to ask you about apache access_log I use apple device to access to apache sever on centos, then I checked access_log in /var/log/httpd/access_logI can see any apple device ID. However, when I use some android device like samsung or smartphone that use android for operating system.I access to access_log , it doesn't show android device ID in spite of android has ID. how can I configure apache server to show Android device ID? Look forward to hearing from you. Best Regards,Chau Pham.

Thank you so much, both of you who answered me,
I was wrong when not mentioned about the header.
the header, it is "User-Agent" passed to apache server(version 2.2.15)
in apache configuration, i used:
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" " combined
The option "%{User-Agent}i" is to display header,
it works fine for computer, laptop, and apple(iphone, ipad) device
however when I use Android then access_log in service side prints out:
172.16.33.124 - - [07/Dec/2012:13:29:37 +0900] "GET /data/playgirls-14.ts HTTP/1.1" 200 2103156 "-" "stagefright/1.2 (Linux;Android 4.0.4)"
- client side, the header is:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.0.4; ko-kr; SHW-M380W Build/IMM76D) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Safari/534.30
-> both of them printed "Linux; U; Android 4.0.4", but access_log in server side not print Device ID: SHW-M380W
apache access_log hadn't display full header.
I had tried to set header "HTTP_USER_AGENT" but it didn't work. Thank you,Chau Pham. From: rbowen@rcbowen.com

Client information is passed to apache httpd via headers. In this case, it would be in the HTTP_USER_AGENT header, which, when I access my server from my Android device, looks like
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 4.2.1; Nexus 7 ... and so on
So, yeah, you'd want to log the HTTP_USER_AGENT header.
See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_log_config.html#formats for details on how to configure your log file to log this value.

No, it isn't. The first request is issued by libstagefright, which is
a component of ffmpeg, and the second request is issued by the stock
android browser. Each can send whatever user agent header it desires.
Therefore, requests made by libstagefright on android do not contain
the device ID field that you want. There is nothing that httpd can do
to change this.

I use the same version of HTTPD. MY log files, when I include that
element in the LogFormat, present the entire string of the user agent
(not a fragment in the middle like you're describing). Are you
examining the actual log files, or are you looking at something
that has been run through a log file interpreter of some sort, since
you're not only reporting not seeing the "device id" but also seem to
suggest the user agent information logged doesn't have the prefixing
"Mozilla/5.0" you're cited in your client side header.
OR do you possibly have an intervening proxy or something that's
replacing the User Agent being passed -- where does this
"stagefright/1.2" you're citing come from instead of "Mozilla/5.0"?
e.g., here's one of my log file entries for an Android client (edited
to obscure privacy info and wrapped into xx lines to fit reasonable
platen widths):
XX.XXX.XXX.XXX - - [29/Nov/2012:22:21:36 -0500]

As you can see, Device ID is there in the raw log file. My LogFormat

I use the same version of HTTPD. MY log files, when I include that
element in the LogFormat, present the entire string of the user agent
(not a fragment in the middle like you're describing). Are you
examining the actual log files, or are you looking at something
that has been run through a log file interpreter of some sort, since
you're not only reporting not seeing the "device id" but also seem to
suggest the user agent information logged doesn't have the prefixing
"Mozilla/5.0" you're cited in your client side header.
OR do you possibly have an intervening proxy or something that's
replacing the User Agent being passed -- where does this
"stagefright/1.2" you're citing come from instead of "Mozilla/5.0"?
e.g., here's one of my log file entries for an Android client (edited
to obscure privacy info and wrapped into xx lines to fit reasonable
platen widths):
XX.XXX.XXX.XXX - - [29/Nov/2012:22:21:36 -0500]

No, it isn't a header, it's just general situation. I know that apache has a very exellence way to wirte access log for client who use general computer or laptop/notepbook accessing to apache server. in case user uses PC/notebook/laptop, apache writes unique IP address to access_log, in case users uses Iphone/Ipad, apache writes IP address and Device IP to access_log, this case every IPhone/Ipad have the same IP address but difference Device ID. In case user uses Android, I wonder this case, apache write same IP address for every android and not write Device ID. I guess there will be a way to configure apache to write Android Device ID to access_log file. > Date: Thu, 6 Dec 2012 07:37:25 -0500
