Do soft 404's get logged to the appache log?

[emc2]

Hi All,

I was wondering, google webmaster tools is reporting some soft 404's for my site and google is correct some threads are missing. xenforo returns a php generated 404 and displays it. Google picks this up as a normal 404 or soft 404 which is great, however when look in the apache looks i cant see them. I want to be able to find them before google does and then correct them.

Does a xenforo generated 404 or any other type of error get logged in the apache logs like a normal 404? Yes, I do have error logging turned on.

Thanks in advance.

I just went live this week and I'm noticing the same thing.
I do not see any errors at all being logged in my Apache error_log.

No, it does not get logged. Because technically it isn't a 404, since index.php is always catched.

As HWS says, no it isn't logged by apache.

Reason? The error isn't returned by apache, it's returned via code in the xenForo script

hmmm. It makes it hard to find broken links to your site
