How to stop mod_deflate from logging to my php error log?

  • 772

I have an environment setup on a system I am not in control of and mod_deflate is entering about 3 lines in the error log for every request. They are only the debug level but for some reason the people in control of the server will not disable that level of reporting and the amount of traffic to my site is enough that it crashes the server from all the log entries.

Is there a way to tell mod_deflate not to write to the log or something else I can do on the site level via htaccess or something?

I am on a fairly basic RHEL LAMP server. Thank you!

    In the end, I ended up talking them into editing the virtual host entries for my sites and adding the:

    LogLevel crit

    I could not find any such way to do it other than that, or fixing it for the whole server.
