[users@httpd] how can I add SERVER_NAME to a filename
Hi there,
I would like to
use a construct like the following
ServerAdmin robert@redcor.net
ServerName projekte2.fh-aargau.ch
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/%{SERVER_NAME}.log combined
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/%{SERVER_NAME}.log
However, the filename it creates is %{SERVER_NAME}.log instead of
projekte2.fh-aargau.ch.log
how can I achieve the desired result?
thanks
robert

AFAIK, what you're asking for cannot be done in Apache.
Those variables that are availble in RewriteRule are exposed
thanks to mod_rewrite. The same server variables exposed by
mod_rewrite are not available in other Apache directives.

Yes - I think it is possible.
This is part of the apache official httpd.conf file:
#<VirtualHost *:80>
# ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host.example.com
# DocumentRoot /www/docs/dummy-host.example.com
# ServerName dummy-host.example.com
# ErrorLog @rel_logfiledir@/dummy-host.example.com-error_log
# CustomLog @rel_logfiledir@/dummy-host.example.com-access_log common
#</VirtualHost>
Not the last entries for the log files.
I don't know how they implement it though.
Are they some sort of environment, or CGI variables?
Maybe someone else knows?
I'd be interested to know how it is done.

Have you looked at mod_setenvif ?

NO.
Although for 1.3 you might want to look at mod_macro. httpd.conf within
itself is not a scripting language, and there has been massive push-back
against ever making it so.
If you want some really slick auto-templating, perhaps you would rather
generate your httpd.conf file, yourself, on the fly within your apachectl
script file. Then you can use the power of perl, python, or simply awk
to accomplish exactly what you want.

keith,
thank you very much for your answer.
I was a bit unclear. I know that I can name the files like this
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/projekte2.fh-aargau.ch/com_log combined
however I would like to have the "projekte2.fh-aargau.ch" part
replaced by a variable.
Is this possible?
somehow %{SERVER_NAME} must be known as I use it in a rewrite rule.
thanks

Re: [users@httpd] how can I add SERVER_NAME to a filename
Posted by ht...@karsites.net.
Are you trying to add your own virtual server's name to your
apache log filename? If so, read the discusion on how to log
virtual hosts. You will find it on the manual home page under:
Users' Guide-> LogFiles->Virtual Hosts.
You can then use the apache supplied perl script,
split-logfile to do the following:
>From the manual:
split-logfile
This perl script will take a combined Web server access log
file and break its contents into separate files. It assumes
that the first field of each line is the virtual host
identity (put there by "%v"), and that the logfiles should
be named that + ".log" in the current directory.
The combined log file is read from stdin. Records read will
be appended to any existing log files.
Or you can set up logging for each specified virtual host
like this:
<VirtualHost 10.1.2.3>
DocumentRoot /www/docs/host.foo.com
ServerAdmin robert@redcor.net
ServerName projekte2.fh-aargau.ch
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/projekte2.fh-aargau.ch/com_log combined
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/projekte2.fh-aargau.ch/error_log
</VirtualHost>
You will need to create the /projekte2.fh-aargau.ch/
directory under /var/log/apache2. This will keep logs for
each virtual host seperate in their own sub-directory.
