Purpose

The error_log file is a log of errors and status messages that the HTTPd server encounters. It currently logs the following:

• Startup Message, Restart Message, and Halt Message
• Debug Dumps (from USR1 signal)
• Clients which time out and abort
• Scripts which produce no output (malformed header from script)
• .htaccess files which attempt to override things they do not have permission to
• Server bugs which produce a segmentation violation or bus error
• User Authentication configuration problems
• File doesn't exist errors
• Resource Limit errors
