How can I access the unique_id that apache tracks for each request? I'd like to track it in any php scripts it calls as well as have it logged for each request.
I remove comment on the following line from http.conf
file:
LoadModule unique_id_module libexec/apache2/mod_unique_id.so
and I am trying to reference the ID in this simple php script:
<?php
print("Hello world\n");
print($_SERVER['UNIQUE_ID']);
?>
Yet this script returns only Hello World
.
Is this possible to do? I'm running macos if that makes any difference.
A var_dump of $_SERVER is as follows:
array(29) { ["HTTP_HOST"]=> string(9) "localhost"

Another problem I am having in the same area may point to the problem at hand: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/127801/where-are-the-apache-config-files-stored?noredirect=1#comment149749_127801
I had to do a /usr/sbin/httpd -k stop
and then a /usr/sbin/httpd -k start
to get the config to take. Unsure why sudo apachectl restart
LOOKED like it was restarting, but it wasn't....
