Re: [users@httpd] SSL Logs and AWStats

I was wondering what is the different between TransferLog and 

CustomLog.  The only difference I can see is that with the TransferLog 

you cannot give it a log format or give it any other parameters.  If 

this is true why use the TransferLog when the CustomLog does the same 

thing and has move features.

Thanks,
Mark.

Your non-SSL virtual host logs to access_log using the "combined" log format which AWStats parses correctly. 

Your SSL virtual host logs to access_log using the "common" format (by default).

Since the "combined" format is parsed correctly, I suggest that you replace the TransferLog directive in the SSL VH by the same CustomLog directive used in the non-SSL virtual host. If you are logging to the same file, you may just as well use the same format...

Hi Group,

I have been looking at how to get AWStats to read SSL logs. And only 

finding other people looking for the same thing, but no real answers.

Below is how I have my VirtualHost setup.  Built using the examples in 

the docs

<VirtualHost 192.168.102.10:80>
   <...>
  ErrorLog      /usr/local/httpd/logs/site1/error_log
  CustomLog   /usr/local/httpd/logs/site1/access_log conbined
  LogLevel      emerg
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 192.168.102.10:443>
   <...>
  ErrorLog      /usr/local/httpd/logs/site1/error_log
  TransferLog   /usr/local/httpd/logs/site1/access_log
  CustomLog  /usr/local/httpd/logs/site1/ssl_request_log \
      "%t %h %{SSL_PROTOCOL}x %{SLS_CIPHER}x \"%r\" %b"
</VirtualHost>

AWStats is reading the access_log file and of course when it read the 

records from SSL they come up as corrupted records. How do you get 

AWStats to read the SSL logs?

Thanks,
Mark.
