Hi Rodrigo

Use mod_rpaf, normal log config, and you'll be fine. The variable doesn't appear in the next requests because haproxy doesn't handle keepalive yet. So next requests are passed unchanged.

Or as suggested Rainer, don't use keepalive : option httpclose. But that's a lower performance (for the end-user) thing : IE gets very slow without keepalive.
