-- Hi,

im writing my first simple input filters ; i need it to debug the request body (content of POST) coming to my Web Server before is handled

by a third party contect handler module (which corrupt data).

I simply want to print out the content of the body request sent by the client . I wrote this peace of code:

static int redirect_wmlInFilter (ap_filter_t* f, apr_bucket_brigade* brigade,

ap_input_mode_t mode, apr_read_type_e block, apr_off_t readbytes) {

apr_bucket* bucket ;

apr_status_t ret ;

if ( ret = ap_get_brigade(f->next, brigade, mode, block, readbytes) ,

ret == APR_SUCCESS )

for ( bucket = APR_BRIGADE_FIRST(brigade) ;

bucket != APR_BRIGADE_SENTINEL(brigade) ;

bucket = APR_BUCKET_NEXT(bucket) )

char *data[bucket->length];

int len;

apr_bucket_read(bucket,&data,&len,1);

ap_log_perror(APLOG_MARK, APLOG_NOTICE, NULL, f->c->pool,

"(IN) %s %s: %d bytes - %s ", f->frec->name, t, bucket->length , data );

else

ap_log_perror(APLOG_MARK, APLOG_NOTICE, NULL, f->c->pool,

"(IN) %s: ap_get_brigade returned %d", f->frec->name, ret) ;

return ret ;

}

The filter is then registered as input filter in the AP_FTYPE_TRANSCODE phase.

static void redirect_wmlRegisterHooks(apr_pool_t *p) {

ap_register_input_filter(webifilter,redirect_wmlInFilter,ifilter_init, AP_FTYPE_TRANSCODE );

}

To test it i simply post fake data with using curl : curl -v -d nameb=valueb http://myserver.myhost.com/postread.cgi

Looking at the logs the instead of seeing the content body nameb=valueb , here what i get :

[Fri Oct 20 00:42:40 2006] [notice] (IN)\twebicookiet20 bytes - \x01\x8b\xa7\x1b

Maybe should i decode it before print it ??

Any suggestion will be appreciated
