Hi Guys,

I've been looking a place to get more knowledge on PERL/Apache interaction and this seems a good place to start.

This is not an actual problem "per se" more like a good-to-have "feature" in my current environment.

I have my Apache running Perl with CGI and virtualhosts, each virtualhost has it's own cgi directory and different apps runnin on them... but there seems to be a catch, each time the perl script call the warn function it prints to the main Apache error log file and not on virtualhost error log file, do you know why? or how can I can change the stdout? Is it something I need to configure in Apache? Any advise on this guys?

UPDATE: Let me give you the details, I'm running Apache 2.2.15 compiled with MPM Worker, and I'm using mod_cgid. Here is the virtualhost template that I'm using: 
<VirtualHost 0.0.0.0:443>
    ServerName privatedomain.com:443
    DocumentRoot "/opt/apache/secure-htdocs"
    DirectoryIndex index.phtml index.php index.html index.htm
    ErrorLog    /opt/apache/logs/privatedomain.com_error_log
    TransferLog /opt/apache/logs/privatedomain.com_access_log

    #### SSL Settings
    SSLEngine On
    SSLProtocol All -SSLv2 -SSLv3
    SSLCertificateFile    /opt/apache/conf/ssl.crt/privatedomain.com.c
+rt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /opt/apache/conf/ssl.key/privatedomain.com.k
+ey
    SSLCACertificatePath  /opt/apache/conf/ssl.crt
    SSLCACertificateFile  /opt/apache/conf/ssl.crt/ca-bundle.crt
    SSLCipherSuite !ADH:!EXPORT56:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv2:+E
+XP:+eNULL

    SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" \
         nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \
         downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0

    <FilesMatch "\.(cgi|pl|shtml|php|phtml|php3?)$">
        SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
    </FilesMatch>

    <Directory "/opt/apache/secure-htdocs">
        Options All
        Order Allow,Deny
        Allow from All
    </Directory>

    ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /opt/apache/secure-cgi-bin/
    <Directory "/opt/apache/secure-cgi-bin" >
         AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit Options
         Order Allow,Deny
         Allow from All
    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>
