[users@httpd] Host details

[Savio Dias <sa...@gmail.com>]

Hi,


I have multiple webservers running apache behind a hardware load balancer.

Is there any apache module which will allow me to see the hostname of
each webserver in "view page source". This will help me debug any
issue pertaining to any specific web.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

There are ofcourse apache modules that manipulate page content. and
you might be able to use this, see for example SSI
(http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/ssi.html)
However this is not how I would do it. What I would do is add a
(custom) response header with the hostname. Maybe your loadbalancer
can do this, or you can do this in your webserver config. If you
install "LiveHTTPHeaders" in your webbrowser (I asume you use Firefox)
you can see the headers with "tools/page info" and so will see where
the page came from without having to tinker with the page content.
