AWSTATS INSTALL WINDOWS INSTALL

During the installation process, you have the option of installing an ISAPI Perl extension, but I recommend not installing it, as you don’t need it to run AWStats in offline mode However, if you do want to run AWStats (or other Perl scripts) online, go ahead and install it. ActivePerl 5.8 installs using a standard MSI installation. I recommend ActivePerl 5.8, which you can download from for free.

AWSTATS INSTALL WINDOWS SOFTWARE

To install AWStats on Windows, download a Perl interpreter (if you don’t already have one) and the AWStats software (scripts).

AWSTATS INSTALL WINDOWS HOW TO

This article also looks at how to install AWStats, analyze logs, and publish generated reports from IIS 6 log files. For example, report generation is scheduled in offline mode to run during off-peak hours. This article discusses how to install and use AWStats only in offline mode, which is preferable because it minimizes security risks and resource usage, so as to not undermine Web server performance. The second is “offline” mode, in which AWStats analyzes data and creates static reports as HTML pages publishable via any standard Web server. When used in online mode, AWStats updates its reports on request. The first is interactive, or “online,” mode.

The Perl source is neither very clear nor particularly readable, so it’s not easy to change the behavior of the software, but you can use it “as is” for most common needs.ĪWStats works in two modes.

It requires an interpreter that can execute Perl scripts and has a small footprint on the server. In fact, most of the time, AWStats doesn’t consume any resources at all.ĪWStats is a Perl application with a simple structure. It is also very fast, and it doesn’t consume many resources. It can analyze a wide variety of logs, and it creates good reports - not the full-featured, interactive, and special-effect-filled reports costly commercial software generates - but still useful, with all the important data presented tastefully. If you can’t afford to devote an entire server to Web log analysis and report creation, then you need an inexpensive and fast solution that isn’t terribly resource-intensive.įortunately, such as solution exists, and its name is AWStats.ĪWStats is a free, open source log analyzer. For example, recent WebTrends (one of the more popular commercial packages) versions require considerable RAM and processor time. In addition, some log analyzers have a performance impact on the server itself. Unfortunately, most are also very expensive. Need to know what your Web site users are visiting in your sites? Try this free and open source Web log analyzer you can use with IIS6-hosted Web sites and applications.īecause log analysis is so important, many commercial software applications create useful and good-looking reports. Analyzing the logs reveals information about which resources are popular, what kinds of browsers people are using, how much bandwidth a Web site consumes, the request trend during a given time span, and so on.

When logging is enabled, Web servers log information about each request. Many thanks for any help, it's appreciated.Web server logs are a powerful resource for extracting information about Web sites and applications. While on this topic can I also turn off the requirement to enter a username and password when accessing stats using the domain as can be done in Plesk? Is there a way to do something similar in Virtualmin? I know it can be done with typing /stats after the domain name but is there a way to show awstats instead webalizer? I can see the familiar stats using the logs and reports in virtualmin but I don't want customers logging in to see their report that way. This brings up the awstats report quite nicely (if it's the one chosen for stats). To get awstats for a particular domain all the customer needs to do is add plesk-stat/webstat after the trailing slash in the domain name in the address bar of the browser. On the windows box we use Plesk as the hosting panel. The issue I'm having is that having migrated a few website over to linux from a windows webserver, I'm trying to gain some of the functionality back with awstats. This maybe covered in the documentation, but I've tried Googling a few times for the answer but have come up blank.
