In /etc/apache2/httpd.conf, having both mod_cgi and mod_cgid loaded makes the ScriptLog value empty (even it's properly display in mod_info!). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Configure a cgi script 2.Configure ScriptLog directive 3.Run the cgi script through a browser Actual Results: No cgi log is created Expected Results: A cgi log file should be created The work around is remove one of cgi mod from httpd.conf. In mod_cgi.c, the conf variable gets defaults values (NULL log file) and not configuration file values in log_script and log_scripterror functions.
Maybe you could post emerge --info and apache version?

Well, may I ask why did you enable both modules in the first place? Because it doesn't make any sense at all. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_cgid.html <snip> This module is used by default instead of mod_cgi whenever a multi-threaded MPM is selected during the compilation process. At the user level, this module is identical in configuration and operation to mod_cgi. The only exception is the additional directive ScriptSock which gives the name of the socket to use for communication with the cgi daemon. </snip> If you think this is a bug, then you should report it upstream. Apparently the modules are not designed/intended to be used simultaneously.
Then fixe the httpd.conf file in gentoo-apache-2.0.58-r2-20060726.tar.bz2 where both cgi modules are loaded.
in apache-2.2 the LoadModule directives are automatically configured based on /etc/apache2/apache2-builtin-mods .. apache-2.2 is going to be stable soon, so this issue should be gone then
2.2.4-r12 is now stable on most archs, additionally, starting with 2.2.6 the ebuild enables the correct module if USE=threads or not.
