+<h3>Summary</h3>
+
+ <p>This module provides for forensic logging of client
+ requests. Logging is done before and after processing a request, so the
+ forensic log contains two log lines for each request.
+ The forensic logger is very strict, which means:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>The format is fixed. You cannot modify the logging format at
+ runtime.</li>
+ <li>If it cannot write its data, the child process
+ exits immediately and may dump core (depending on your
+ <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#coredumpdirectory">CoreDumpDirectory</a></code>
+ configuration).</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>The <code>check_forensic</code> script, which can be found in the
+ distribution's support directory, may be helpful in evaluating the
+ forensic log output.</p>
+
+ <div class="warning">
+ This module was backported from version 2.1 which uses a more powerful
+ APR version in order to generate the forensic IDs. If you want to run
+ <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_log_forensic.html">mod_log_forensic</a></code> in version 2.0, you need to include
+ <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_unique_id.html">mod_unique_id</a></code> as well.

+<h2><a name="formats" id="formats">Forensic Log Format</a></h2>
+ <p>Each request is logged two times. The first time is <em>before</em> it's
+ processed further (that is, after receiving the headers). The second log
+ entry is written <em>after</em> the request processing at the same time
+ where normal logging occurs.</p>
+
+ <p>In order to identify each request, a unique request ID is assigned.
+ This forensic ID can be cross logged in the normal transfer log using the
+ <code>%{forensic-id}n</code> format string. If you're using
+ <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_unique_id.html">mod_unique_id</a></code>, its generated ID will be used.</p>
+
+ <p>The first line logs the forensic ID, the request line and all received
+ headers, separated by pipe characters (<code>|</code>). A sample line
+ looks like the following (all on one line):</p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ +yQtJf8CoAB4AAFNXBIEAAAAA|GET /manual/de/images/down.gif
+ HTTP/1.1|Host:localhost%3a8080|User-Agent:Mozilla/5.0 (X11;
+ U; Linux i686; en-US; rv%3a1.6) Gecko/20040216
+ Firefox/0.8|Accept:image/png, <var>etc...</var>
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>The plus character at the beginning indicates that this is the first log
+ line of this request. The second line just contains a minus character and
+ the ID again:</p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ -yQtJf8CoAB4AAFNXBIEAAAAA
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>The <code>check_forensic</code> script takes as its argument the name
+ of the logfile. It looks for those <code>+</code>/<code>-</code> ID pairs
+ and complains if a request was not completed.</p>

+ <p>The <code class="directive">ForensicLog</code> directive is used to
+ log requests to the server for forensic analysis. Each log entry
+ is assigned a unique ID which can be associated with the request
+ using the normal <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_log_config.html#customlog">CustomLog</a></code>
+ directive. <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_log_forensic.html">mod_log_forensic</a></code> takes the unique ID from
+ <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_unique_id.html">mod_unique_id</a></code>, so you need to load this module as well.
+ (This requirement will not be necessary in version 2.1 and later, because
+ of a more powerful APR version.) The ID token is attached to the request
+ under the name <code>forensic-id</code>, which can be added to the
+ transfer log using the <code>%{forensic-id}n</code> format string.</p>
+
+ <p>The argument, which specifies the location to which
+ the logs will be written, can take one of the following two
+ types of values:</p>
+
+ <dl>
+ <dt><var>filename</var></dt>
+ <dd>A filename, relative to the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code>.</dd>
+
+ <dt><var>pipe</var></dt>
+ <dd>The pipe character "<code>|</code>", followed by the path
+ to a program to receive the log information on its standard
+ input. The program name can be specified relative to the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code> directive.
+
+ <div class="warning"><h3>Security:</h3>
+ <p>If a program is used, then it will be run as the user who
+ started <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code>. This will be root if the server was
+ started by root; be sure that the program is secure or switches to a
+ less privileged user.</p>
+ </div>
+
+ <div class="note"><h3>Note</h3>
+ <p>When entering a file path on non-Unix platforms, care should be taken
+ to make sure that only forward slashed are used even though the platform
+ may allow the use of back slashes. In general it is a good idea to always
+ use forward slashes throughout the configuration files.</p>
