I ran into this thread because I wanted to use mod_log_sql with mod_rewrite. I ran into the exact problem described in this thread.
I managed to fix it by patching libapache2-mod-log-sql and compiling it myself. The adjustment is in functions.h: https://github.com/OutOfOrder/mod_log_sql/blob/1.100/functions.h#L91-L98 In this function, request_rec->status is used, but as described in http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/developer/API.html#log_handlers: >When a request has internally redirected, there is the question of what to log. Apache handles this by bundling the entire chain of redirects into a list of request_rec structures which are threaded through the r->prev and r->next pointers. The request_rec which is passed to the logging handlers in such cases is the one which was originally built for the initial request from the client; note that the bytes_sent field will only be correct in the last request in the chain (the one for which a response was actually sent). This is the root cause of the problem. By checking if request_rec is not null, and if that's the case, using the next request's status code, the correct status codes are stored in the database. This solution works for requests through mod_rewrite as well as requests which are not rewritten.
