Hi,

I'm trying to implement logic which apache making return status 204 instead of 200 and log it into access log.
It doing "RedirectMatch 204 xxxxx.gif$"
for nginx I have created this part of config which working very close to above:
[code]
if ( $request_uri ~ xxxxx.gif ) {
return 204;
}
location ~ xxxx.gif {
log_format special-v4 "$msec\t$args\t$http_cookie";
access_log /path/to/access.log special-v4;
empty_gif;
internal;
}
[/code]

so it works but not writing into log.

[code]
Next one writing into log but not giving response 204:
location ~ xxxx.gif {
log_format special-v4 "$msec\t$args\t$http_cookie";
access_log /path/to/access.log special-v4;
empty_gif;
internal;
return 204;
}
[/code]

My question: is it possible to have ability write access log and have retcode 204 without binary modification custom modules?
