Apache Ignoring Custom Module

So I am working on trying to make my own apache module. Right now I trying to get it to return a 403 just to test it out, but it seems that apache just ignores the module entirely and returns the default page. Here is the relevant parts of my code:

static int request_hook(request_rec* r){
  return HTTP_FORBIDDEN;
}

/* ********************************************
    Register module to Apache
   ******************************************** */

static void register_hooks(apr_pool_t *p)
{
    // We want to hook first so we can issue a deny ASAP if needed
    ap_hook_log_transaction( request_hook, NULL, NULL, APR_HOOK_REALLY_FIRST);
}

module AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA my_module = {
    STANDARD20_MODULE_STUFF,
    NULL,              /* dir config creater */
    NULL,                       /* dir merger --- default is to override */
    NULL,                       /* server config */
    NULL,                       /* merge server configs */
    NULL,                   /* command apr_table_t */
    register_hooks              /* register hooks */
};

And my apache configuration file looks like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html
        SetHandler      my_module
</VirtualHost>

It was compiled by doing 

sudo apxs -i -a -c my_module.c && sudo service apache2 restart

Fixed. The problem was the function:

ap_hook_log_transaction( request_hook, NULL, NULL, APR_HOOK_REALLY_FIRST);

should have been:

ap_hook_handler( request_hook, NULL, NULL, APR_HOOK_REALLY_FIRST);
