AWStats never updates when parsing my proftpd log file.

Here's what I get : 

[root@localhost ~]# /usr/share/awstats/www/awstats.pl -config=ftpcnam:2121 -update  

Searching new records from beginning of log file...  
Jumped lines in file: 0  
Parsed lines in file: 1  
 Found 0 dropped records,  
 Found 0 comments,  
 Found 0 blank records,  
 Found 1 corrupted records,  
 Found 0 old records,  
 Found 0 new qualified records.

Here's what my vhost configuration look like : 

ExtendedLog /home/cnam/ftp/logs/proftpd_log read,write awstats
TransferLog none

And in the main proftpd configuration file : 

LogFormat awstats "%t   %h  %u  %m  %f  %s  %b"

I did put a tab char instead of space between the %tags in the LogFormat directive.

I put in the awstats configuration of the vhost :

LogType="F"
LogFormat="%time1 %host %logname %method %url %code %bytesd" 
LogSeparator="\t"

This log format does not work with AWStats. It is considered as corrupted by AWStats, maybe because of your local language.

/usr/lib/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=exemple.com -showcorrupted

You have to change the log format of both ProFTPd and AWStat:

  • ProFTPd (with tab char instead of space):

    LogFormat awstats "%{%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S}t %h %u %m %f %s %b"

  • AWStats:

    LogFormat="%time2 %host %logname %method %url %code %bytesd"
