Using the following,

log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local]  '
                '"$request" $status $body_bytes_sent '
                '"$http_referer" "$http_user_agent"';

access_log  logs/access.log  main;

Notice the extra “-”'s…

Restarting nginx hasn’t helped either. Have I disabled a module or
haven’t enabled a module I needed?

I’m just having issues getting awstats to parse the log file being
generated by nginx

3

The logs are showing extra “-”'s, where there should be none? The extra
“-”
breaks awstats parsing

I suspect awstats have issues with ipv6 addresses. You may try
feeding it with the same log lines but with plain ipv4 addresses
instead to see if it helps.

Again: where you see extra “-”'s?

It’s not clear what you are consider to be wrong. Everything
looks fine and perfectly correct from here.
