RE: [users@httpd] logging from cgi

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I quote from the Apacle 2.0 ScriptLog:

   Note that script logging is meant to be a debugging
   feature when writing CGI scripts, and is not meant
   to be activated continuously on running servers. It
   is not optimized for speed or efficiency, and may
   have security problems if used in a manner other
   than that for which it was designed.

Now I would like to log certain specific aspects of my
cgi activity on a "continuously running server".  Perhaps
I should just open a file and write to it?  This is how I
have been debugging. On the other, I like the files:
cgi, cgi.1, cgi.2, etc. that I think syslog will
generate.

Further suggestions much appreciated.
Mike.
