How to specify Apache loglevel in CPanel
I want to change my Apache log level to: LogLevel warn access_compat:crit
There is a drop-down box in WHM to set it to warn, but without an option to add anything else.
Where / how can I configure a detailed log level?

Hey there! We have details on how to adjust this value here:
https://support.cpanel.net/hc/en-us/articles/4420690869143-How-do-I-change-the-log-level-of-Apache
Let me know if that helps!

Where do I put "access_compat:crit"?

I'm not sure - can you let me know the specific change you're trying to make?

I don't want to log AH01797 errors (client denied by server configuration)

I'm not finding a good way to do this. I'm guessing you also found this article at https://serverfault.com/questions/402989/how-to-hide-client-denied-by-server-configuration-error-in-log but cPanel doesn't include that module.
However, if we check the Apache documentation we'll find this page:
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_access_compat.html
"Available in Apache HTTP Server 2.3 as a compatibility module with previous versions of Apache httpd 2.x. The directives provided by this module have been deprecated by the new authz refactoring. Please see
mod_authz_host"which takes us here:
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_authz_host.html
cPanel does include mod_authz so maybe you could find a way using that information?
Is there a specific problem with the log entries on the system? Is this just appearing so often that it is making the logs large? I checked my personal machine which is very log traffic, and even I have over 450,000 entries for that error, most of which are just bots checking for random files.

Yes, I found that same article.
About -just a random guess- 90% of all errors in the log are AH01797. That makes it really hard to find errors that do matter.
Wondering... is that error somewhere as a Variable? The reason I'm asking is this: https://serverfault.com/questions/91152/filter-entries-from-going-into-apache-logs
SetEnvIf Remote_Addr "127\.0\.0\.1" nolog CustomLog logs/access_log common env=!nologThat would allow to not log AH01797 if there's a way to check that.

I'm not familiar with that error being related to a variable, no.

Not related to, but being able to be filtered with. The example would allow to not log that error if there's any environment variable set to allow doing so.

Not that I am aware of.

Thank you anyway.
