Hello.

I am looking for some help using the LogFormat and CustomLog
directives to create custom logs. Here is what I am trying to do:

I have a doman called domain.com. Under this domain I have several
directories which host different web pages called web1 and web2. Valid
URLs would be:

www.domain.com
www.domain.com/web1
www.domain.com/web2

I would like to separate the activity of these three addresses into
three separate log files.

I've read a lot of the documentation and I know the %U variable will
probably be what I need, but I can't seem to get the syntax correct so
that requests for these three URLs end up in separate log files.

Can some please help me with the syntax?

Thanks.

Laura

Davide's right, also logging to multiple files can get nasty, apache
recommend that you log to one file and then use some kind of parser on
it, the same way you dont want to resolve domain names inside the log
file for performance reasons...
you could use a program like awstats which is a perl program that will
show you stats for any number of domains and directories, then you have
rather killed three birds with one stone.

Hi Laura,
do you have mod_perl? You dont NEED it, but I would recommend it for
something like this, as it can be quite CPU and memory hungry,
especially as the log file grows into the tens or hundreds of MB.
Personally I decided to set it off statically using cron each night at
00:00, and simply copy the files into a directory for each website, in
case the person who reads the stats gets too interested or decides to
leave the browser up and go to bed. (my server is a poor little p3!)
If you were to give me more info about your setup it might help
diagnosing the error. It can be quite alarming the size of that awstats
conf!

I put in AWSTATS. It's a pretty nice program and produces a nice
output. Thanks!

The only problem I have with it is that I can't get it to run from a
browser. I keep getting Internal Server Error.

It runs fine from the command line.

Any ideas? I would like to use the browser update feature to get
real-time statistics.

Laura
