I'm looking for options in capturing all HTTP requests to a host (or a specific directory of a host) by one script. The environment that I'm working in is Apache HTTP (version 1.3). Sometimes I'm able to use mod_perl, but for the most part I'm required to use CGI.

So far I've been able to make use of

ErrorDocument 404 /myapp/index.cgi

This works well, providing /myapp/index.cgi with all requests made to any path within the /myapp directory (such as /myapp/foo/bar).

The problem with this is that it fills up Apache's error log.

Are there other methods? If so, how does Perl get at the requested path (I've had problems with this when attempting to use mod_rewrite)?

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
