Programs Other Programs

The following programs are simple support programs included with the Apache HTTP Server which do not have their own manual pages. They are not installed automatically. You can find them after the configuration process in the support/ directory.

log_server_status

This perl script is designed to be run at a frequent interval by something like cron. It connects to the server and downloads the status information. It reformats the information to a single line and logs it to a file. Adjust the variables at the top of the script to specify the location of the resulting logfile.

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.
