Cron AWSTATS missing some logfiles

Quote from TheCry

Hi Laurent...
Today i got an email from root, that the cronjob fpr awstats.pl is missing some logfiles.

Thats's correct the logfiles do not exists.
The logifiles, which are missing, are logfiles from aliasdomain.
The aliasdomains are forwarded to an another domain.

When creating a domain (whatever its type), Apache log files are never created for it as long that the site is not reached. The i-MSCP apache logger create the log files at runtime, when the site is reached the first time. In your case, you got that email because when the Awstats cron task has been run, the log file for your domain alias was not created yet. This problem can occur for any entity.

Well here, the simplest way to fix this is to create empty log file on entity creation. I'll also check if it's not possible to tell Awstats to ignore any entity for which not log file exists.

Now I see another problem: I don't think that we must collect statistics data through Awstats for an entity being redirected. Statistics should be available for the domain on which the entity is redirected.

Thanks you for you report.

Edit:

TheCry Can you please post us the content of your /etc/cron.d/imscp cron file? I ask for this because normally, any output should be redirected on /dev/null to disable cron mail.

Thanks
