Package: varnish Version: 1.1.2 Severity: minor Copying from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/varnish/+bug/277558 :
There already is a init script for varnishlog ( http://linux.die.net/man/1/varnishlog ) to save the varnish log to a file. But there is no init script for varnishncsa ( http://linux.die.net/man/1/varnishncsa ). varnishncsa produces apache-style logs, these are much more useful because one can use standard logfile analysis tools (awstats f.x.). The command line arguments for both are very similar: Varnishlog accepts a superset of varnishncsa's arguments - but the varnishlog init script only uses the common ones. The varnishlog init script can be used for varnishncsa with slight modifications. I attach a diff of the neccessary changes. The only non-obvious change is the addition of the -c switch. Without this switch, varnishncsa also logs varnish accessing the backend webserver. For an apache-style log, you obviously want to see only clients accessing the proxy. diff_varnishlog_varnishncsa.txt (684 bytes, text/plain) http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18160068/diff_varnishlog_varnishncsa.txt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
