Hi!

We are using  director at work and  wanted to do site navegation
tracking. To achieve that purpose we needed to log the cookies.
We activated the apache coockies logging but the coockies never showed up.
The problem was that apache director module remove the cookies from
the request structure received from the apache server.
When the apache was about to log the cookies, it had nothing to log.

I found that in mod_enhydra_director.c the cookies were explicitly
removed:

ap_table_unset(r->headers_in, "Cookie");

I commented  that line and with the new module the cookies started to
show up in logs as expected.
What was the purpose of removing the cookies from the request
structure? I can't see a reason for doing that and it looks like bad
ideia as it broken cookies logging and could broke sometinhg else.May
be i'm missing something.

I dont know if someone else  need cookies logging  but if so the
really simple patch is at the end of this email.

Regards.
João Paulo Ribeiro
