Hello Axel & Maxim,

I have modified the apache log format as below

LogFormat "%{X-Forwarded-For}i %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\"
\"%{User-Agent}i\"" common

and get the source IP at /var/log/apache/access.log

I wonder if I there is any scope to add more info in the common log as it
is a production server. And also need the same for ErrorLog too.

Any suggestion ?

Thanks
