With the old apache 1.3 you could do...

TransferLog None

Now if you do that it creates a file called "None" and logs to there... Is there a way to disable logging for one virtual host.

Just comment out the TransferLog line and there won't be any log file.

If I comment it out it will use the default log which is set in the httpd.conf file... I want the default logging for some of the other sites. But I have one really busy site which gets a gig of logs a day and prefer not to have all that being logged as it's eating up space.

There used to be a way to disable the logging with the old versions of apache. It's strange there does not seem to be a way to do this with the newer versions.

OK, I tested a bit and the following worked on a few requests. I did not tested it under load.

Error log I commted out, works. And the access log into nirvana.

#ErrorLog c:/logs/sandbox.error.log
CustomLog C:/nul common

Code:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot c:/www_sandbox
    ServerName sandbox.local
    ServerAlias www.sandbox.local
    #ErrorLog c:/logs/sandbox.error.log
    #CustomLog /server2/logs/sandbox.access.log common
    CustomLog C:/nul common
<Directory "c:/www_sandbox">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Thanks,

It seems strange that the "None" does not work anymore. I wonder if there are any improvements because of this...
