Example: The core sets %{error-notes}n with some extended error info during some error responses (sometimes the same additional info passed in the error response). This might help you differentiate between a few different type of 400 responses. AuthBasicProvider stashes the name of the module that handled authentication in a note called "authn_provider_name". "Why not open it"? I don't think this makes any sense. Modules post these notes to whoever might want to view them (logging, or passing messages between modules/phases). > I'm probably completely misunderstanding the use of %n, but this is > what I could make from it myself...

If you're not working on a module that documents adding some note that night be of interest, you wouldn't be logging it. -- Eric Covener covener@xxxxxxxxx --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
