Here are the steps in installing and configuring AWstats in Tomcat Web Server
STEPS:
1. Download awstats.war from the internet
2. Since Tomcat disabled by default the CGI executions, we need to enable it by renaming the file servlets-cgi.renametojar to servlets-cgi.jar
Example:
[Tomcat_installation_path] = /usr/local/apache-tomcat-5.5.20
#cd /usr/local/apache-tomcat-5.5.20/server/lib
#mv servlets-cgi.renametojar servlets-cgi.jar
3. Install AWStats
Since it is already a .war file, no need to install it by hand, you just need to copy this file to [Tomcat_installation_path]/webapps folder
#cp awstats.war [Tomcat_installation_path]/webapps
It would create an [Tomcat_installation_path]/webapps/awstats folder after copied.
4. Configure AWStats
Let say our domain is www.mydomain.com
#cd /etc
#mkdir awstats
#cd [Tomcat_installation_path]/webapps/awstats/WEB-INF/cgi-bin
#cp awstats.model.conf /etc/awstats/awstats.www.mydomain.com.conf
5. Edit awstats.conf
#vi /etc/awstats/awstats.www.mydomain.com.conf
Look for the line in the configuration and change the values as shown below:
Example:
LogFile=”LogFile=”/var/log/httpd/www.mydomain.com-combined_log”
LogType=W
LogFormat=1
LogSeparator=” ”
SiteDomain=”www.mydomain.com”
DNSLookup=1
DirData=”.”
DirCgi=”/cgi-bin”
6. Update Site Statistics
Here you have two choices:
1. Set AllowToUpdateStatsFromBrowser=1 in awstats.www.mydomain.com.conf file, see above. This will allow updating from the web browser with: http://www.mydomain.com/awstats/cgi-bin/awstats.pl?config=www.mydomain.com&update=1.
2. Using SSH, go to [Tomca_install]/webapps/awstats/WEB-INF/cgi-bin folder and run perl awstats.pl -config=www.mydomain.com -update.
Example:
#/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=www.mydomain.com -update
Create/Update database for config “/etc/awstats/awstats.www.mydomain.com.conf” by AWStats version 6.6 (build 1.887)From data in log file “/var/log/httpd/www.freelinuxtutorials-combined_log”…
Phase 1 : First bypass old records, searching new record…
Direct access after last parsed record (after line 10471)
Jumped lines in file: 10471
Found 10471 already parsed records.
Parsed lines in file: 160
Found 0 dropped records,
Found 0 corrupted records,
Found 0 old records,
Found 160 new qualified records.
7.View Site Statistics
Access it using your favorite browser. Type
http://www.mydomain.com/awstats/cgi-bin/awstats.pl?config=www.mydomain.com
8.Create crontab script in order to update the log file analysis
#crontab –e
add this line
example:
0 * * * * /usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=www.mydomain.com -update > /root/awstatsjob/awstats.log
9. You can follow “Installation of GeoIP Information for AWStats” documentation to have a country information on your web/mail/ftp statistics.
