I was testing rewrite with following conditions:
Code:
RewriteCond expr "filesize('%{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/down-for-maintenance.txt') -gt 1024"
RewriteCond expr "filemod('%{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/down-for-maintenance.txt') -gt %{TIME}"


Result was error 500. Message in error log:
Code:
[2022-01-28 12:25:05.815403] [core:alert] [pid 14784:tid 4548] [client xxxxx] [xxxx/.htaccess: RewriteCond: cannot compile expression "filemod('%{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/down-for-maintenance.txt') -gt %{TIME}": Function 'filemod' does not exist]


At https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/expr.html there is a description of functions filesize and filemod. Both have Special note of being 'Rescricted', meaning that they are not available in some modules like mod_include.

The filesize function does not create an error, so it is not restricted in my case.
What are restricted modules for the filemod function?
Or is there some other problem that I'm not aware of?

I did some digging.
In the source of httpd-2.4.52\server\util_expr_eval.c there is no filemod in
Code:
static const struct expr_provider_single string_func_providers[] = {
    { osenv_func,           "osenv",          NULL, 0 },
    { env_func,             "env",            NULL, 0 },
    { req_table_func,       "resp",           NULL, 0 },
    { req_table_func,       "req",            NULL, 0 },
    /* 'http' as alias for 'req' for compatibility with ssl_expr */
    { req_table_func,       "http",           NULL, 0 },
    { req_table_func,       "note",           NULL, 0 },
    { req_table_func,       "reqenv",         NULL, 0 },
    { req_table_func,       "req_novary",     NULL, 0 },
    { tolower_func,         "tolower",        NULL, 0 },
    { toupper_func,         "toupper",        NULL, 0 },
    { escape_func,          "escape",         NULL, 0 },
    { unescape_func,        "unescape",       NULL, 0 },
    { file_func,            "file",           NULL, 1 },
    { filesize_func,        "filesize",       NULL, 1 },
    { base64_func,          "base64",         NULL, 0 },
    { unbase64_func,        "unbase64",       NULL, 0 },
    { sha1_func,            "sha1",           NULL, 0 },
    { md5_func,             "md5",            NULL, 0 },
    { NULL, NULL, NULL}
};


So, is it actually missing, although mentioned in version 2.4 Documentation?

Hi Timo,
the docs aren't correct. The code is only into the trunk branch and hasn't made its way into 2.4 yet.


--- edit ---

I filed a bug report
