I really need some help with this. My server has multiple virtual hosts, each virtual host has its access log, I need to be able to customize the LogFormat for each virtual host exist on server. I have modified LogFormat in httpd.conf but it actually affects only the master access log and not the virtual hosts. Here is my LogFormat:
LogFormat "%v:%a %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %{CF-Connecting-IP}i" combinedvhost LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %{CF-Connecting-IP}i" combined LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b %{CF-Connecting-IP}i" common CustomLog "logs/access_log" combined CustomLog logs/access_log combinedvhost LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %{CF-Connecting-IP}i" combinedio LogFormat "%v:%a %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %{CF-Connecting-IP}i" combinedvhost LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %{CF-Connecting-IP}i" combined LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b %{CF-Connecting-IP}i" common LogFormat "%{Referer}i -> %U" referer LogFormat "%{User-agent}i" agent CustomLog logs/access_log common CustomLog logs/access_log combined CustomLog logs/access_log combinedvhost
The above LogFormat only affects the master access log which located at: /usr/local/apache/logs/access_log However, it does not affect any of the virtual hosts on server that have their access logs located at: /home/username/access-logs/domain.com I'm not sure if I have something wrong in the LogFormat itself or I'm missing something. I've spent many hours trying to solve this problem but didn't find a solution. I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could shed some light on this. Thank you.

  Hello, You should not have to create a LogFormat entry for each virtual host. You can simply modify the main LogFormat entries, which should apply to the Apache domlogs. The following document should help:
