Name

http_debug_log — set WebDAV HTTP request logging

Synopsis

http_debug_log ( in file_path varchar );

Description

When an valid path string is supplied and it is allowed in file ACL list, the WebDAV HTTP requests and responses will be logged in append mode in to that file. When an open logging session is encountered the second call will produce an error. Specifying a NULL instead of file_path string stops the logging.

The log file consists of lines with following fields:

  • The request and response are marked by <<< and >>> signs

  • Client IP address

  • Date and time of request/response

  • Timestamp (milliseconds)

  • Request/response line
