+
+
+ <p>When using a large number of Virtual Hosts, Apache may run
+ out of available file descriptors (sometimes called <cite>file
+ handles</cite>) if each Virtual Host specifies different log
+ files. The total number of file descriptors used by Apache is
+ one for each distinct error log file, one for every other log
+ file directive, plus 10-20 for internal use. Unix operating
+ systems limit the number of file descriptors that may be used
+ by a process; the limit is typically 64, and may usually be
+ increased up to a large hard-limit.</p>
+
+ <p>Although Apache attempts to increase the limit as required,
+ this may not work if:</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>Your system does not provide the <code>setrlimit()</code>
+ system call.</li>
+
+ <li>The <code>setrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE)</code> call does not
+ function on your system (such as Solaris 2.3)</li>
+
+ <li>The number of file descriptors required exceeds the hard
+ limit.</li>
+
+ <li>Your system imposes other limits on file descriptors,
+ such as a limit on stdio streams only using file descriptors
+ below 256. (Solaris 2)</li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p>In the event of problems you can:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Reduce the number of log files; don't specify log files
+ in the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#virtualhost">&lt;VirtualHost&gt;</a></code>
+ sections, but only log to the main log files. (See <a href="#splitlogs">Splitting up your log files</a>, below, for more
+ information on doing this.)</li>
+
+ <li>
+ If your system falls into 1 or 2 (above), then increase the
+ file descriptor limit before starting Apache, using a
+ script like:
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ <code>#!/bin/sh<br />
+ ulimit -S -n 100<br />
+ exec httpd</code>
+ </code></p></div>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+
+</div>
+<div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
+<div class="section">
+<h2><a name="splitlogs" id="splitlogs">Splitting up your log files</a></h2>
+
+<p>If you want to log multiple virtual hosts to the same log file, you
+may want to split up the log files afterwards in order to run
+statistical analysis of the various virtual hosts. This can be
+accomplished in the following manner.</p>
+
+<p>First, you will need to add the virtual host information to the log
+entries. This can be done using the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_log_config.html#logformat">
+LogFormat</a></code>
+directive, and the <code>%v</code> variable. Add this to the beginning
+of your log format string:</p>
+
+<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">LogFormat "%v %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %&gt;s %b" vhost
+CustomLog logs/multiple_vhost_log vhost</pre>
+
+
+<p>This will create a log file in the common log format, but with the
+canonical virtual host (whatever appears in the
+<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#servername">ServerName</a></code> directive) prepended to
+each line. (See <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_log_config.html">mod_log_config</a></code> for
+more about customizing your log files.)</p>
+
+<p>When you wish to split your log file into its component parts (one
+file per virtual host), you can use the program <code><a href="../programs/other.html">split-logfile</a></code> to accomplish
+this. You'll find this program in the <code>support</code> directory
+of the Apache distribution.</p>
+
+<p>Run this program with the command:</p>
+
+<div class="example"><p><code>
+split-logfile &lt; /logs/multiple_vhost_log
+</code></p></div>
+
+<p>This program, when run with the name of your vhost log file, will
+generate one file for each virtual host that appears in your log file.
+Each file will be called <code>hostname.log</code>.</p>
