Problem with awstats: too many corrupted record ?

[Thomas Parvais]

Hello,

I've installed awstats to perform reporting on HMS traffic & usage. I enable awstats logging.

Here is an example of the log file:

2007-09-09 14:38:07 send_newsletter_interne@droit.be droit-technologies@fconnes.org 127.0.0.1 SMTP ?virus=&rblgheuristicspam=0&ssl=0 250 80937
2007-09-09 14:38:20 send_newsletter_interne@droit.be ccastro@fd.uc.pt 127.0.0.1 SMTP ?virus=&rblgheuristicspam=0&ssl=0 250 80937
2007-09-09 14:38:27 send_newsletter_interne@droit.be georges.azzaria@fd.ulaval.ca 127.0.0.1 SMTP ?virus=&rblgheuristicspam=0&ssl=0 250 80937

I configure Awstats with the following parameters: in awstats.maxetzoe.conf:

Code: Select all

LogFile="C:/Program Files/hMailServer/Logs/hmailserver_awstats.log"
LogType=M
LogFormat="%time2 %email %email_r %host %method %url %code %bytesd" 
LogSeparator="\t"

When i launch the script to update the DB by parsing the log, I found a lot of corrupted lines in the log: 7700 corrupted lines on 14000 total lines.

Where is the bug/issue ?

Thank you

Thomas

Try using the LogFormat found in the logging documentation:
LogFormat="%time2 %email %email_r %host %host_r %method %url %code %bytesd"

I tried first, but according to me host_r is not present in hms log file !? In that case, all lines are incorrect

So you tried first and it didn't work? Or..? I agree, your line looks more correct but the one I suggested has been working according to other people. :-\

A bit hard to say why awstats say that the records are corrupt without actually seeing the corrupt ones. Perhaps possible to log those records in some way? :-\

Im' using the last release of awstats. i'll look at how to enable debug mode in awstats
