Description of problem: The documentation for mod_log_debug (in httpd-manual package) contains four examples one of which is syntactically incorrect and prevents Apache from starting. It uses the following configuration: <Location "/foo/"> LogMessage "subrequest to /foo/" hook=type_checker expr=%{IS_SUBREQ} </Location> This is how Apache reacts: # systemctl start httpd Job for httpd.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status httpd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. # journalctl -xe ... httpd[2603]: AH00526: Syntax error on line 8 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/custom.conf: httpd[2603]: Could not parse expression '%{IS_SUBREQ}': syntax error, unexpected $end ... This is probably a documentation bug, one easily fixable by the following modification which I believe does the desired job (I am no expert at this matter, though): LogMessage "subrequest to /foo/" hook=type_checker "expr=-T %{IS_SUBREQ}" ^ ^^^ ^ Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): httpd-manual-2.4.6-31.el7_1.1.x86_64
