I already tried both methods, and even tried spaces after the line.
Maybe I got a buggy version of Fail2Ban.

Thank you for the information.
Ok, I think you mentioned that the semi-colon doesn't work either. But I'd like
to check.
Can you tell me if this works:
[apache-overflows]
enabled = true
port = http,https
logpath = /var/log/apache2/error.log;/var/log/apache2/error2.log
maxretry = 2
So, no spaces between the two file paths/names, just a ;
Also I think maybe you might need an extra space if you use the "newline"
method. I think I forgot to say this!
Does this work:
[apache-overflows]
enabled = true
port = http,https
logpath = /var/log/apache2/error.log
/var/log/apache2/error2.log
maxretry = 2
Note that when I pressed enter at the end of the "logpath" line, I then typed a space before I typed
"/var/log/apache2/error2.log
Please try both of those. Fail2ban is very "fussy" about its configuration files. I have made so many errors while
writing configuration files. It is painful!

For example this will error:

enabled = true

logpath = /var/log/apache2/error.log
/var/log/apache2/error2.log
maxretry = 2
ERROR Failed during configuration: Source contains parsing errors:
'/etc/fail2ban/jail.local'
[line 883]: '/var/log/apache2/error2.log\n'
But this will not error:
[apache-overflows]
enabled = true
port = http,https
logpath = /var/log/apache2/error.log
maxretry = 2
And this will not error:
[apache-overflows]
enabled = true
port = http,https
logpath = /var/log/apache2/error2.log
maxretry = 2
/var/log/apache2/error2.log is a substitute name.

Maybe there is a small mistake somewhere in the configuration?
Please paste the jail's configuration here - we will use "fresh eyes" to
see if we can find the problem :-)

I thought spacing was working before, but it's not, nether does ";" and
nether does a new line. So I just put
the others on new lines, and commented them out. That works :-) sortof
:-)
