This mask will read the file named "ex100306.log" if you run the update on March 6.
CORRECTION: my previous answer is confusing and not correct. You can only specify one log file with the LogFile directive in the AWStats config file. To specify several log files, you need to use logresolvemerge.pl , an AWStats utility included in the AWStats package.
I think I may have a misconception regarding what log files awstats reads.
In my mind, I'm thinking that I can copy over let's say 6 months of old webtrends log files into a particular directory ( separate from my regular log files which are in another directory ), include that directory in my LogFile string and expect awstats to read all those logs in addition to my regular log files and show me the resulting report.
Am I right on this?
The reason I ask is because in the LogFile string I posted earlier above, it seems like only the first path is being processed, which is where my regular log files are stored.
I looked at the link you posted and it seems like that is what I have. I start my LogFile string with D:\\Inetpubwwwroot\\dev.aghost.net\\cgitools\\logresolvemerge.pl followed by a space delimited list of directories that contain the additional log files.
Oops. It's not my day. You are right: logresolvemerge is already used in your LogFile directive. So my corrections above were not needed.
Getting back to your question, I believe that you should probably not use masks like ex%YY-0%MM-0%DD-0 if you want to merge all files in a given directory. Just use ex1003*.log to read all files dated March 2010 or ex10*.log for all files of 2010. Masks like %YY-…%MM-…%DD-… should only be used when you want to read the file of one specific day closed to the date of today.
