Hi All,

I wrote a log converter that converts the MailEnable log into a AWStats compatible format. You can can add this to your awstats.mailenable.conf file int the cg-bin dir of AWstats. The only requirment is that you have the .NET framework 1.1 installed (since it's was built using c#).

If anyone is interested, let me know....

Regards,
Karl

I've got the same situation, but have not had time to investigate this. I think MailEnable keeps a lock on the log file. This means the convertor is not able to access it until ME has released the file.

One way to solve this (and how I do it) is to schedule the awstats update after midnight to pick up the log file from the day before. You will then see that it properly reads the log. (You can also manually tell awstats to pick up an old log file).

Thanks for the fast answer

I have tried to change the date of the computer, but the problem persists
I have put the scripts in automatic to 00.01, we will see tomorrow morning

thanks

If you set it to run every day just after midnight, you might want to alter the configuration file that is included to subtract 24 hours from the current date/time. The config file in the archive has it at 3 hours previous.

I guess it would probably still work at 3 since it only looks at the date to identify the log file (as long as you ran it automatically sometime between midnight and 3am).... but technically it should be 24 =)

All my awstat updates run every 2 hours, therefore I don't have a problem :wink:

BTW: I forgot to mention that you need to log all possible fields in the ME log (the convertor expects them). Otherwise it may not work properly.

Hi,
I have modified the log like from indicated you, but this e' the error that they give to me

Corrupted records means the format is invalid.

Check the awstats.mailenable.conf file to see the format it's looking for, then check ME to make sure it's producing logs in that format. Keep in mind that any logs created prior to changing ME's configuration will still be in the old format and will fail.

Hi,

I made a new build. Download it and try again (it's in the same place as before).

This build fixes the locked log file problem and also takes into account the actual fields written to the log file based on the #fields: line in the log.

Let me know if this fixes your issues...
