Missing access_logs in home directory log folder

Question

Why are my access_logs missing from my home directory's log folder?

Answer

The server stores all logs in the /var/log/apache2/ folder and then splits the logs into their own user and domain folders under the /var/log/apache2/domlogs/ folder. The files stored in the /home/username/logs/ folder are the compressed log files from these folders after the web statistics are run.

To generate the files in the log folder run the following command.

/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/runweblogs $username 

Please note that "$username" must be replaced with the cPanel user's username.

Please note that running this command empties the corresponding domlogs for the user.
