Bug#605123: apache2.2-common: "incorrect" definitions of Common Log Format and Combined Log Format

[Christoph Anton Mitterer <calestyo@scientia.net>]

Package: apache2.2-common
Version: 2.2.16-4
Severity: minor


Hi.

In the apache2.conf you make some predefined log-formats, including one for
the Common Log Format and one for the Combined Log Format.

Those are defined there using %O for the number of bytes.
Most other resources I could find (e.g. Apache documentation and W3C) use %b however
or defined this to be the size of the document being transmitted (therefore
without the Header stuff).


Althoug I personally also prefer the total raw size (and therfore %O) I'd suggest
to use %b here, to be _absolutely_ compatible to everything else.


Cheers,
Chris.
