Hi, Tom,
Your read the code too fast :-P
Yes, it's "#ifndef", which means if you do NOT define DEBUG, you will go
inside the block and return. :-)
So it only logs when you define the DEBUG.
My first reaction is exactly as you suggested, trying to tune the LogLevel.
But it does NOT help, i.e., whatever log level you set, the message won't
be printed.
Look at the code, level_and_mask is from the hard-coded APLOG_INFO, and
ap_default_loglevel is also pre-set and has nothing to do with LogLevel.
I hope what I said makes sense to you.
Best,
T
