Hi

 

Is there an AWStats version for Uniserver "Coral"?

If yes, is an step for step tutorial available?

 

Thank you.

Not yet. We're still working on getting the base package stable.

 

Very few of the plug-ins and add-ons have been updated for use with 8-Coral, but we'll get there some day.

 

If you'd like to help, we'd be happy to have your input! PM me.

 

Regards,

BobS

Current version of AWStats is 7.0

http://awstats.sourceforge.net/

I try to use version 7.0 without success, I'm sure the problem is mine, but installing 6.9 and using the module provided in the WiKi I can confirm is working, so I can access it:

http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/awstats/awstats.pl

I just edit the config file of AWStats - awstats.conf adding the full path to Apache access log file.

LogFile="C:/UniServer/usr/local/apache2/logs/access.log"

Thank you for the reply. I installed now AWStats 7.0 on my testserver and it runs fine.

Can you explain please and thank you!

Sure, i write a short step by step guide now. Take some time.

Done, i hope nothing is forgotten.

 

Install AWStats 7 on UniServer Coral

 

Step 1:

Download ActivePerl from http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/downloads and save it to C:\UniServer\alt_diag\install_perl

 

Step 2:

After the download is complete, go to C:\UniServer\alt_diag\install_perl and run extract_install_perl.bat

Wait until the installation is finished.

 

Step 3:

Download the AWStats ZIP-package from http://awstats.sourceforge.net/#DOWNLOAD (latest stable is 7.0 today)

Choose some savepath, e.g. My Documents / Downloads

 

Step 4:

Open the AWStats zip-package and navigate to awstats-7.0/wwwroot/cgi-bin

Copy everything inside the cgi-bin into C:\UniServer\cgi-bin\awstats (create the folder manually)

Copy the following folders to C:\UniServer\www\awstats :

-icon

-css

-js

-classes

(they are locatet at awstats-7.0/wwwroot in the zip-package).

 

Step 5:

Rename the file awstats.model.conf under C:\UniServer\cgi-bin\awstats to awstats.domain.com.conf

If you use dyndns it looks like this: awstats.name.dyndns.org.conf

 

Step 6:

Now open the renamed conf-file with Notepad++ or another real editor.

Find the line LogFile= and change it to LogFile="C:/UniServer/usr/local/apache2/logs/access.log"

Find the line SiteDomain= and change it to SiteDomain="domain.com" (use the SAME domain as in the filename!)

Find the line DirCgi= and change it to DirCgi="/cgi-bin/awstats"

To show the icons, graphs and the css layout,

find the line DirIcons= and change it to DirIcons="http://localhost/awstats/icon"

 

Step 7:

If you want to update the stats immediately on the AWStats site, enable it:

Find the line AllowToUpdateStatsFromBrowser=0 and change it to AllowToUpdateStatsFromBrowser=1

 

Step 8:

Now open the browser and go to: http://localhost/cgi-bin/awstats/awstats.p...nfig=domain.com <<- the same domain as the filename: awstats.domain.com.conf

 

Step 9, Security:

If you want only access from localhost, create a .htaccess file at C:\UniServer\cgi-bin\awstats\ with this content:

 

Order Deny,Allow

Deny from all

Allow from 127.0.0.1

Allow from ::1

 

 

If everything shows zero's, click on Update now on the top of the page. If no update now link appears, check step 7.

AHA!!!

So the key here is that there are two different steps.

First, install Perl. That's taken care of by following the "standard" Perl install.

THEN, install AWStats. This includes getting the config set to the proper domain and directories.

 

Very nice. Thanks!

@ traxxus - Thank you.

Steps 5 to 8 is the missing ones for me.

So as I say the problem is mine

Very good and usefull tutorial. Thanks again!

WTF! Why i can't edit my posts after some time? Bad forum settings.

 

I forgot an line at step 6. AWStats won't show the icons, graphs and the css layout.

 

Find the line DirIcons= and change it to DirIcons="http://localhost/awstats/icon"

 

But remind: You must copy the following folders to C:\UniServer\www\awstats :

-icon

-css

-js

-classes

 

(they are locatet at awstats-7.0/wwwroot in the zip-package).

I put them in for you. Hope it's correct now.

Uniserver 7.1.5 Orion - working just fine

Following the steps provided here exactly w/o success!

It worked for me without a hiccup.

 

Thanks for this simple guide. I'm gonna add it to the guides

 

Credits to you @ linked to this page unless you have a site that you would like me to link it to.

 

p.s I used my server's local IP instead of localhost otherwise it will not display any images at all from another computer in my network or from outside.

 

Perhaps it would be prudent to use DirIcons="http://server_ip/awstats/icon" instead of localhost e.x:

DirIcons="http://10.1.1.11/awstats/icon" (this is the server's local IP address if you are behind a firewall/static NAT).

 

Also, add an .htaccess by default (sorry, I'm always paranoid about unnecessary access unless explicitly allowed). In my opinion, security will always be loose if you leave it up to the end user. It is (as a recommendation) effective to always restrict access and have the end user relax it as needed (IF it is ever needed in the first place).

 

 

#------------------------------HTACCESS------------------------------------

# Server folder \cgi-bin\awstats .htaccess

# This file provides server security limiting access to the localhost only.

# Comment next four lines to deactivate. (Allow external access)

Allow from 127.0.0.1

Allow from ::1

 

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Allow access from local network (LAN)

# Add your own network/subnet if not in this range.

Thank you. I use only localhost (not the server IP) for security. Like you said, with localhost you can only access from the webserver himself. And the adding of an htaccess is descriped in step 9 already.

 

Ok now I could use some help to make me understand and fix this for everyone else in the long run.

 

AWStats did not find any valid log lines that match your LogFormat parameter, in the 50th first non commented lines read of your log.

Your log file D:/UniServer/usr/local/apache2/logs/access.log must have a bad format or LogFormat parameter setup does not match this format.

 

Your AWStats LogFormat parameter is: 1

This means each line in your web server log file need to have "combined log format" like this:

111.22.33.44 - - [10/Jan/2001:02:14:14 +0200] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 1234 "http://www.fromserver.com/from.htm" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)"

 

And this is an example of records AWStats found in your log file (the record number 50 in your log):

127.0.0.1 - - [28/Feb/2012:23:07:32 -0500] "GET /awstats/icon/other/button.gif HTTP/1.1" 200 147

 

 

Setup ('D:/UniServer/cgi-bin/awstats/awstats.unlockforus.com.conf' file, web server or permissions) may be wrong.

Check config file, permissions and AWStats documentation (in 'docs' directory).

 

If I run it on a test Uniserver (everything runs with Administrator privileges) it works. So my believe is that there is a permission issue in the production server...?

In the awstats config change the line `logformat` (cant remind the exact name) from 1 to 4.

Thank you. I should've read the config file options.
