[users@httpd] "access_log" vs. "access.log" problem
Hi,
I am running Apache 2.0.50 on Windows 2000.
In my httpd.conf, I have:
CustomLog logs/access.log combined
But, I noticed that Apache is writing access entries into the
logs\access_log file, and nothing is being written to the
logs\access.log file.
The reason that I noticed this is I've been trying to track down a
problem, and I wanted to used the "combined" log format, but not only is
the "combined" format not taking effect, but the data is going to
access_log instead of access.log, and I can't find any uncommented
references to "access_log" in httpd.conf at all.
I guess that what I'd really like to do eventually is turn off writing
to access_log, and have my custom format logging going to access.log,
but I can't figure out where or how the access_log is configured, and
the configuration that I have for access.log doesn't seem to be working.
Can anyone tell me how to correct this situation?
Thanks,
Jim

Hi,
In case anyone ever runs across something like this before, I've figured
this out.
I had SSL configured on this Apache, and I didn't realize that there was
a <VirtualHost> setup there (probably the default), and there was a
TransferLog directive there for "access_log".
The <VirtualHost> probably is also why nothing was being written to
"access.log". I've added a CustomLog to the VirtualHost for
"access.log", and now everything works.

check your .conf files and .htaccess files for any occurances of
error_log. You might even want to grab unxutils from sourceforge,
'grep -r' is your friend :)
