referer.log
The
referer.log
records
the
Referer:
header
of
the
HTTP
request.
For
each
request,
the
log
records
the
document
that
contained
the
link
to
the
requested
document.
The
log
uses
the
following
format:
referer
->
object
This
information
is
useful
for
tracking
external
links
to
documents
in
your
Web
space.
The
log
reveals
that
the
source
indicated
by
referer
contains
a
link
to
a
page
object.
This
log
allows
you
to
track
stale
links
and
to
find
out
who
is
creating
links
to
your
documents.
The
following
example
shows
a
sample
version
of
a
referer.log
file:

Log
data
in
UTF-8
format
WebSEAL
produces
log
data
using
UTF-8
encoding.
When
the
operating
system
uses
a
non-UTF-8
local
code
page,
WebSEAL
automatically
converts
log
data
to
a
data
format
to
match
the
non-UTF-8
local
code
page.
In
some
cases,
the
conversion
from
UTF-8
to
non-UTF-8
encoding
can
result
in
data
loss.
For
this
reason,
it
is
recommended
that
the
WebSEAL
process
run
in
a
locale
environment
that
uses
UTF-8
encoded
code
pages.
For
more
information,
see
“Multi-locale
support
with
UTF-8”
on
page
44.
