Dear all,
I need this to get uniform log files for http and ftp downloads.
I have searched the web for instructions on how to persuade
apache2 to write log files in standard wu-ftp xfer log format,
but found nothing usefull.
Therefor I attach instructions on howto accomplish this.
First define a somewhat correct log format in httpd.conf:
LogFormat "%{%a %b %d %T %Y}t %T %a %B %f b _ o a %u %H 0 * c" xferlog
Now enable the site in question to use this format:
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log xferlog
The resulting log file needs some touching up:
The date format shows a leading 0 on single digit dates
The transfer time sometimes shows up as 0
Directory listings and icon transfers need to be removed
File path needs to be shortened
To accomplish all this add a line to logrotate.d/apache2 in the
postrotate section right after where apache restarts:
sed -i '/\/usr\/share\/apache2\//d;/favicon.ico /d;/ 0 [^\*]s 0 / 1 /;/ 0[1-9] s 0/ /;s/\/home\/ftp//;/\/ /d'
/var/log/apache2/access.log.1
where:
/usr/share/apache2 is the path to the apache icons
/home/ftp is the path to your site
/var/log/apache2/access.log.1 is the freshly rotated apache log
I hope this is usefull.
It is probably required to combine the newly generated log file with those
of the ftp server. Unfortunately I have not figured out how to do this yet.
Suggestions are welcome.
