> Request_Method "GET(.*)/maxtop\.php$"
This will never match, Request_Method is something like "GET" alone.

Do you mean we can only exclude ALL GET requests but not certain GET requests by regex like SetEnvIf Request_Method "\.php$" dontlog ? Please, comment precisely to understand the issue finally, otherwise the question should be REOPENED.

You have to read the names of the parameters, Request_method has nothing to do with a URL. The manual is pretty clear: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_setenvif.html#setenvif Request_Method - the name of the method being used (GET, POST, et cetera) If you want to compare against the method and the URL at the same time, you'll have to use something more sophisticated like SetEnvIfExpr or <If> |
Hello to Apache, Environment CentOS 7.5 Server version: Apache/2.4.6 (CentOS) installed from CentOS base repository using yum LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%m %V%U %H\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-agent}i\"" combined CustomLog /var/log/httpd/access_log combined env=!dontlog Problem description EXAMPLE 1 - OK SetEnvIf Request_URI "\.png$|\.gif$|\.jpg$|\.jpeg$|\.js$|\.css|\.woff$" dontlog everything is ok, it excludes from Apache log the lines like 83.266.84.27 - - [27/Oct/2018:14:07:19 -0500] "GET example.com/mod/maxtop.php HTTP/1.1" 200 3412 "http://example.com/image.png" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; rv:56.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/56.0" EXAMPLE 2 - PROBLEM SetEnvIf Request_Method "GET(.*)/maxtop\.php$" dontlog does NOT exclude from Apache log the lines like 83.266.84.27 - - [27/Oct/2018:14:07:19 -0500] "GET example.com/mod/maxtop.php HTTP/1.1" 200 3412 "http://example.com/page218.html" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; rv:56.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/56.0" I tried many other variations, for example SetEnvIf Request_Method "\.php$" dontlog but it does not work - anyway Apache does NOT exclude the according lines from log file. I asked StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53025708/apache-2-4-how-to-exclude-certain-get-requests-from-log-using-setenvif but nobody can't answer there. I did not find in Google no one REAL example how to do that. A week ago I asked same from users@httpd.apache.org - but also nobody answered me. Please, cross-check from your side - is this a bug of Apache 2.4 or mod_setenvif ? Why SetEnvIf Request_URI "\.png$|\.gif$|\.jpg$|\.jpeg$|\.js$|\.css|\.woff$" dontlog - WORKS OK but same SetEnvIf Request_Method "\.php$" dontlog - DOES NOT WORK ? Thanks in advance for attention and answer.
