Hi, I’d like to log certain parts of each request into a database table for every request to provide an audit trail. I thought of inserting a <dtml-call xxx> into the standard_html_header, but when there is a RESPONSE.redirect, it will not be the original request that gets logged. Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Ok, so I could put a <dtml-call … > into my standard_html_header, and any redirects do them with a call to Dieters script (which may not work with future zope versions) to make sure I am keeping the original request. Hmm, is there a better solution anyone knows of? Basically I just want to do an insert into a database of some stuff from each request.

You have not mentioned what your use case is or what data you want to store, but another possible option would be to have every url call the same script; that script then logs/stores the desired information and then passes control (redirect or direct call) to the target routine (information about the target routine can be embedded within the url so that the initially invoked script can appropriately route control).

Say no more, that’s exactly what I was looking for. I just (zope 2.6.4) selected "Set access Rule" in the zmi and click Add, enter the name of the script I want to execute and that’s it. I knew there had to be a simple way.

Sounds like work for a "SiteAccess" "AccessRule"... -- Dieter -- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

Well that would mean 2 log entries - one from the redirecting page and one from the target of the redirect. Btw, its usually not the best idea if you can avoid it - what about using the apache log facilities here?
Can anyone offer any suggestions?
Thanks, Josh
