This error was displayed in Apache’s error.log after an ISPConfig installation. Initially the problem was thought to be with perl’s DATE::FORMAT however that ended up not being the case. Somehow the httpd.conf file in /etc/httpd/conf/ got corrupted on the LogFormat line as shown below.

[quickcode:corrupt-httpd.conf]
LogFormat “%v||||%b|||||%h %l %u %t \”%r\” %>s %b \”%{Referer}i\” \”%{User-Agent}i\”" combined_ispconfig
CustomLog “|/root/ispconfig/cronolog –symlink=/var/log/httpd/ispconfig_access_log /var/log/httpd/ispconfig_access_log_%Y_%m_%d” combined_ispconfig
[/quickcode]

It should look like this:

[quickcode:httpd.conf]
LogFormat “%v %b %h %l %u %t \”%r\” %>s %b \”%{Referer}i\” \”%{User-Agent}i\”" combined_ispconfig
CustomLog “|/root/ispconfig/cronolog –symlink=/var/log/httpd/ispconfig_access_log /var/log/httpd/ispconfig_access_log_%Y_%m_%d” combined_ispconfig
[/quickcode]

So if you are seeing a similar error the problem is more than likely with the LogFormat statement in httpd.conf. Also make sure your vlogger is installed properly by typing “which vlogger”.
