Can lighttpd access log be filtered?
Hi,
I'm running lighttpd 1.4.18 on an embedded Linux system with limited amount of disk space. Is there a way to filter or limit the amount of information that the accesslog module writes to the log file? Can I turn off logging of image files (.jpg) for example? Any help would be appreciated.

Try something as follows:
Assuming that images are in /path/to/webroot/images and html files are in /path/to/webroot/html Code:
$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/path/to/webroot/html($|/)"{
accesslog.filename = "/var/log/lighttpd.log"
}

Hi Monk,
Thanks for your advice. It works like a charm  . I'm filtering out the style sheets and images with the following:Code:
$HTTP["url"] !~ "(\.css|\.jpg)$" {
accesslog.filename = "/var/log/lighttpd.log"
}

Yes, it should improve performance.
