Marker requests' Host header is always "localhost"

[airween]

I want to test a custom rule set with a specific pre-configured vhost, which listens on localhost (127.0.0.1).

I added Host header to each test, eg:

          headers:
            User-Agent: "OWASP CRS test agent"
            Host: "my.vhost.com"
            Accept: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5
            Content-Type: "application/xml"

The test request is sent with the specified header, but when go-ftw sends the marker requests before and after it, they has "localhost".

So the markers' logs are written to the original log, but the test result is written into the vhost's own log (if there is).

It would be nice if the marker requests also use the Host header like the test itself.

Workaround: use the same error.log for specific vhost as the default.

Hmmm... but this only works in local mode, right? I mean, go-ftw will be reading local files, in the local host (or mounted filesystem) to know where to find the logs.

Yes, only in local mode. I would try to use different rule sets for different VHOST's.
