RE: access_log numbers lower than expected....
One possibility is that if you (or some process) edits the logfile in question while apache is running, logging will stop until you restart apache. You might consider logging directly from your mod_perl handler to a file or DB. Charles -Original Message- From: Anthony E.

However, my log file only shows about 18,000 queries for the search.cgi script. Is there any possibility that the search.cgi is cached and not reporting accurate numbers to the access_log?

RE: access_log numbers lower than expected....
It's my understanding that unless you have setup something explicitly otherwise it would report even the cached accesses in your access_log. Are you rotating your script or anything like that? Are you sure all searches are going through that one file? Is it accounting for mutiple domains etc? -Ben -Original Message- From: Anthony E.
