It is the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file which specifies if & where the
Apache server is to write log files. By default the logs for all the virtual
sites are stored as one big log file which Webalizer can analyse according
to the site. But on my server I have changed the httpd.conf file so that the
log file for each domain is stored in it's own folder e.g.
/home/sites/www.site.com/logs/log as this makes it easier for me to handle
each sites' logs/Webalizer data.

If you post the contents of your httpd.conf then maybe we could see whether
there was a problem in that. Alternatively send it to me privately and I
will look at it for you.

Another possibility is that - if you manually were to delete a Apache log
file, then you must re-start Apache in order for it to continue writing a
new file with the same name.
