Referer Log Format

The Referer log format is an old format that was implemented in the NSCA httpd server. It was used to log information about the request's referer in a separate log file. The combined log format has made this log format obsolete.

Referer log files have the following format:

uridocument

uri

The referring URI. This is the content of the Referer header of the request which usually reflects the page where the user was before that request.

document

The local document that was referenced by that URI. This is the requested file without any query string.
