Hi

yes combined format is correct it should work if its declared.

see excerpt from my httpd.conf:

8<--8<--

LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" 
  combined

CustomLog /var/log/httpd-access.log combined

8<--8<

the first line should be already present in your httpd.conf so simply 
add the CustomLog line either at toplevel or in your virtualHost 
directive and it should work


and my webalizer.conf :

8<--8<--

LogType clf

8<--8<



a typical clf-log-format entry looks like this:

xx.xx.xx.xxx - - [22/May/2006:18:35:25 +0200] "GET /foo HTTP/1.1" 404 
293 "http://foohost/referer" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 
NT 5.1; de) Opera 8.50"
