Changing Your Web Server Log File Format
By default your
Web Server Log Files are in the Combined
Log Format. All access, agent, and referer information is logged
to the ~/www/logs/access_log file.
You can change the web server log file format to the Common Log Format
(separate log files for the access, agent, and referer data)
by modifying your web server configuration
file (~/www/conf/httpd.conf) like this:
# common log format
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b"
# combined log format
#LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\""
# The location of the access logfile
# If this does not start with /, ServerRoot is prepended to it.
TransferLog logs/access_log
# If you would like to have a separate agent and referer logfile
# uncomment the following directives.
RefererLog logs/referer_log
AgentLog logs/agent_log
You can also define your own log format by modifying the
LogFormat directive above.
After making the changes above, be sure to
Restart Your Virtual Server Web Server.
