Have you selected extended logging format and selected ONLY the columns that AWstats wants in the install doc?
Also, if you have previous logs that are not exactly setup like the install wants, delete or archive them somewhere and restart IIS.
Just did this today... worked perfect.

Yes but I need to know I have a custom config file format so I need to know exactly what parameters go into it such as
LogFormat = "%time2 %host %logname %method %url %code %bytesd %ua %referer"
LogFormat = "%time2 %host %logname %method %url %code %bytesd %ua %referer"
Ok... is this your log column list? if not exactly, please provide your exact IIS log format. thanks.

Ok... you originally mentioned that your logformat was set to 2.... you should set your LogFormat to the following:
LogFormat="date time c-ip cs-username cs-method cs-uri-stem cs-uri-query sc-status sc-bytes cs-version cs(User-Agent) cs(Referer)"
Also, double check the following:
your LogFile config to make sure it is pointing to the log you want.
LogType=W
LogSeparator=" "
Let me know how this works for you.

Hi,
This is happenning due to the Awsts configure so please install awstats through the following steps.
Installation of Awstats
1. Download the Latest version of Awstats from following url:
(http://awstats.sourceforge.net/)
2. Install the Awstats using Downloaded Installer. (Recommended path is c:\Awstats).
3. Create a Directory with the name of Data at c:\Awstats.
4. Make the configuration of log format in IIS (Windows 2003) IIS>web site>properties>website tab>Active Log format>properties>Advanced
5. Create a virtual directory in IIS through which you can view the Awstats through Helm CP or directly by url like (http://IPAddress/awstats/cgi-bin/awstats.pl?config=domainname.com)
6. Add update. bat file in the schedule task, update. bat will be available in ‘C:\Awstats\wwwroot\cgi-bi
7. Make sure check the Awstats after one or two days to make sure that your stats are updating or not because if any problem in installation then you can’t recover the old logs. If the Awstats is working fine also the c:\Awstats\data directory, it should contain a data file for each domain on which Awstats has been enabled.
8. If you want to update the logs manually then please use following command:
c:\awstats\wwwroot\cgi-bin
