[Resolved] Log configuration

[DoM]

Hi,
i am using litespeed with cPanel.

On apache with cPanel i use customLog directive inside each virtualhost such as:

CustomLog "/usr/local/apache/logs/access_log" "%v %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\""

In order to log each virtualhost entry with DOMAIN ITEM at start of line inside access_log

Litespeed does not seem to elaborate this directive so logs looklikes something:

x.x.x.x - - [24/Oct/2010:21:45:39 +0200] "GET /branche/?s=count&w=desc HTTP/1.0" 200 2601 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Yahoo! Slurp/3.0; link...)"

As you can see there is NO domain entry so i cannot determine which domain receive this request.

My goal is to log ALL domains request inside ONE access_log.


Waiting for your reply

Best regards

my test on our cPanle box shows that litespeed support "%v" in LogFormat as well. please check if any other settings override it? I did test on 4.0.17

Hi,
on litespeed configuration > server > log i tried both in log format:

"%v %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-agent}i\""

and

"%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-agent}i\""

but no way.


When i was using apache instead of litespeed everything worked with following directives:

server access_log
<IfModule log_config_module>
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" common

CustomLog logs/access_log common

</IfModule>

and vhost access_log:
CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/$domain_name combined
CustomLog "/usr/local/apache/logs/access_log" "%v %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\""


Do i need to add vhost template from litespeed instead of using httpd.conf ?

when using litespeed with cPanel, litespeed will read and parse apache's httpd.conf. you needn't do settings at "litespeed configuration > server > log", just configure settings in /usr/local/apache/httpd.conf as if apache is running.

Hi,
i did it from start but no way let it works.

My doubt is that litespeed read FIRST CustomLog and does not care about second inside vhost directives.

Inside litespeed > server > log my configuration is:

File name: $SERVER_ROOT/logs/access.log
Piped logger: empty
Log format: empty
Log headers: Referrer UserAgent Host
Rolling size: 2000M
Keep days: 365
Compress archive: yes

should not. but you need restart lsws after you make change in httpd.conf

 

[DoM]

already did it and no changes.

can you post your vhost setting in /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf:
is it

CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/$domain_name combined
CustomLog "/usr/local/apache/logs/access_log" "%v %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\""

?

and for confirmation, what's your server's current setting:

# To customize this VirtualHost use an include file at the following location

</VirtualHost>

confirmed that:
LogFormat "%v %h %l" myformat
CustomLog "/usr/local/apache/logs/test_log" myformat
works. but
CustomLog "/usr/local/apache/logs/test2_log" "%v %h %l"
not

this is a bug and fixed by developer. just updated in 4.0.17 release.
so now
CustomLog "/usr/local/apache/logs/test2_log" "%v %h %l"
working too
