资源说明：Geolizer is a patch for Webalizer that uses the GeoIP library to generate faster and more reliable geographic statistics than the default DNS suffix method. It is recommended that DNS reversal be disabled on your HTTP server for improved performance and more accurate statistics. It also supports country flag pictures, can be compiled under MinGW/MSYS, and features a human-readable transfer size display.

What is The Webalizer?
----------------------
The Webalizer is a web server log file analysis program which produces
usage statistics in HTML format for viewing with a browser. The results
are presented in both columnar and graphical format, which facilitates
interpretation. Yearly, monthly, daily and hourly usage statistics are
presented, along with the ability to display usage by site, URL, referrer,
user agent (browser), search string, entry/exit page, username and country
(some information is only available if supported and present in the log
files being processed). Processed data may also be exported into most
database and spreadsheet programs that support tab delimited data formats.
The Webalizer supports CLF (common log format) log files, as well as
Combined log formats as defined by NCSA and others, and variations
of these which it attempts to handle intelligently. In addition, wu-ftpd
xferlog formatted logs and squid proxy logs are supported.
Gzip compressed logs may now be used as input directly. Any log filename
that ends with a '.gz' extension will be assumed to be in gzip format and
uncompressed on the fly as it is being read. In addition, the Webalizer
also supports DNS lookup capabilities if enabled at compile time. See
the file DNS.README for additional information.
This documentation applies to The Webalizer Version 2.01
Running the Webalizer
---------------------
The Webalizer was designed to be run from a Unix command line prompt or
as a cron job. There are several command line options which will modify
the results it produces, and configuration files can be used as well.
The format of the command line is:
webalizer [options ...] [log-file]
Where 'options' can be one or more of the supported command line
switches described below. 'log-file' is the name of the log file
to process (see below for more detailed information). If a dash
("-") is specified for the log-file name, STDIN will be used.
Once executed, the general flow of the program follows:
o A default configuration file is scanned for. A file named
'webalizer.conf' is searched for in the current directory, and if
found, it's configuration data is parsed. If the file is not
present in the current directory, the file '/etc/webalizer.conf'
is searched for and, if found, is used instead.
o Any command line arguments given to the program are parsed. This
may include the specification of a configuration file, which is
processed at the time it is encountered.
o If a log file was specified, it is opened and made ready for
processing. If no log file was given, or the filename '-' is
specified on the command line, STDIN is used for input.
o If an output directory was specified, the program does a 'chdir' to
that directory in preparation for generating output. If no output
directory was given, the current directory is used.
o If a non-zero number of DNS Children processes were specified, they
will be started, and the specified log file will be processed,
either creating or updateing the specified DNS cache file.
o If no hostname was given, the program attempts to get the hostname
using a uname system call. If that fails, 'localhost' is used.
o A history file is searched for. This file keeps previous month
totals used on the main index.html page. The default file is
named 'webalizer.hist', kept in the specified output directory,
however may be changed using the "HistoryName" configuration file
keyword.
o If incremental processing was specified, a data file is searched for
and loaded if found, containing the 'internal state' data of the
program at the end of a previous run. The default file is named
'webalizer.current', kept in the specified output directory, however
may be changed using the "IncrementalName" configuration file keyword.
o Main processing begins on the log file. If the log spans multiple
months, a separate HTML document is created for each month.
o After main processing, the main 'index.html' page is created, which
has totals by month and links to each months HTML document.
o A new history file is saved to disk, which includes totals generated
by The Webalizer during the current run.
o If incremental processing was specified, a data file is written that
contains the 'internal state' data at the end of this run.
Incremental Processing
----------------------
Version 1.2x of The Webalizer adds incremental run capability. Simply
put, this allows processing large log files by breaking them up into
smaller pieces, and processing these pieces instead. What this means
in real terms is that you can now rotate your log files as often as you
want, and still be able to produce monthly usage statistics without the
loss of any detail. This is accomplished by saving and restoring all
relevant internal data to a disk file between runs. Doing so allows the
program to 'start where it left off' so to speak, and allows the
preservation of detail from one run to the next.
Some special precautions need to be taken when using the incremental
run capability of The Webalizer. Configuration options should not be
changed between runs, as that could cause corruption of the internal
stored data. For example, changing the MangleAgents level will cause
different representations of user agents to be stored, producing invalid
results in the user agents section of the report. If you need to change
configuration options, do it at the end of the month after normal
processing of the previous month and before processing the current month.
You may also want to delete the 'webalizer.current' file as well (or
whatever name was specified using the "IncrementalName" configuration
option).
The Webalizer also attempts to prevent data duplication by keeping
track of the timestamp of the last record processed. This timestamp
is then compared to current records being processed, and any records
that were logged previous to that timestamp are ignored. This, in
theory, should allow you to re-process logs that have already been
processed, or process logs that contain a mix of processed/not yet
processed records, and not produce duplication of statistics. The
only time this may break is if you have duplicate timestamps in two
separate log files... any records in the second log file that do have
the same timestamp as the last record in the previous log file processed,
will be discarded as if they had already been processed. There are
lots of ways to prevent this however, for example, stopping the web
server before rotating logs will prevent this situation. This setup
also necessitates that you always process logs in chronological order,
otherwise data loss will occur as a result of the timestamp compare.
Output Produced
---------------
The Webalizer produces several reports (html) and graphics for each
month processed. In addition, a summary page is generated for the
current and previous months (up to 12), a history file is created
and if incremental mode is used, the current month's processed data.
The exact location and names of these files can be changed using
configuration files and command line options. The files produced,
(default names) are:
index.html - Main summary page (extension may be changed)
usage.png - Yearly graph displayed on the main index page
usage_YYYYMM.html - Monthly summary page (extension may be changed)
usage_YYYYMM.png - Monthly usage graph for specified month/year
daily_usage_YYYYMM.png - Daily usage graph for specified month/year
hourly_usage_YYYYMM.png - Hourly usage graph for specified month/year
site_YYYYMM.html - All sites listing (if enabled)
url_YYYYMM.html - All urls listing (if enabled)
ref_YYYYMM.html - All referrers listing (if enabled)
agent_YYYYMM.html - All user agents listing (if enabled)
search_YYYYMM.html - All search strings listing (if enabled)
webalizer.hist - Previous month history (may be changed)
webalizer.current - Incremental Data (may be changed)
site_YYYYMM.tab - tab delimited sites file
url_YYYYMM.tab - tab delimited urls file
ref_YYYYMM.tab - tab delimited referrers file
agent_YYYYMM.tab - tab delimited user agents file
user_YYYYMM.tab - tab delimited usernames file
search_YYYYMM.tab - tab delimited search string file
The yearly (index) report shows statistics for a 12 month period, and
links to each month. The monthly report has detailed statistics for
that month with additional links to any URL's and referrers found.
The various totals shown are explained below.
Hits
Any request made to the server which is logged, is considered a 'hit'.
The requests can be for anything... html pages, graphic images, audio
files, CGI scripts, etc... Each valid line in the server log is
counted as a hit. This number represents the total number of requests
that were made to the server during the specified report period.
Files
Some requests made to the server, require that the server then send
something back to the requesting client, such as a html page or graphic
image. When this happens, it is considered a 'file' and the files
total is incremented. The relationship between 'hits' and 'files' can
be thought of as 'incoming requests' and 'outgoing responses'.
Pages
Pages are, well, pages! Generally, any HTML document, or anything
that generates an HTML document, would be considered a page. This
does not include the other stuff that goes into a document, such as
graphic images, audio clips, etc... This number represents the number
of 'pages' requested only, and does not include the other 'stuff' that
is in the page. What actually constitutes a 'page' can vary from
server to server. The default action is to treat anything with the
extension '.htm', '.html' or '.cgi' as a page. A lot of sites will
probably define other extensions, such as '.phtml', '.php3' and '.pl'
as pages as well. Some people consider this number as the number of
'pure' hits... I'm not sure if I totally agree with that viewpoint.
Some other programs (and people :) refer to this as 'Pageviews'.
Sites
Each request made to the server comes from a unique 'site', which can
be referenced by a name or ultimately, an IP address. The 'sites'
number shows how many unique IP addresses made requests to the server
during the reporting time period. This DOES NOT mean the number of
unique individual users (real people) that visited, which is impossible
to determine using just logs and the HTTP protocol (however, this
number might be about as close as you will get).
Visits
Whenever a request is made to the server from a given IP address
(site), the amount of time since a previous request by the address
is calculated (if any). If the time difference is greater than a
pre-configured 'visit timeout' value (or has never made a request before),
it is considered a 'new visit', and this total is incremented (both
for the site, and the IP address). The default timeout value is 30
minutes (can be changed), so if a user visits your site at 1:00 in
the afternoon, and then returns at 3:00, two visits would be registered.
Note: in the 'Top Sites' table, the visits total should be discounted
on 'Grouped' records, and thought of as the "Minimum number of visits"
that came from that grouping instead. Note: Visits only occur on
PageType requests, that is, for any request whose URL is one of the
'page' types defined with the PageType option. Due to the limitation
of the HTTP protocol, log rotations and other factors, this number
should not be taken as absolutely accurate, rather, it should be
considered a pretty close "guess".
KBytes
The KBytes (kilobytes) value shows the amount of data, in KB, that
was sent out by the server during the specified reporting period. This
value is generated directly from the log file, so it is up to the
web server to produce accurate numbers in the logs (some web servers
do stupid things when it comes to reporting the number of bytes). In
general, this should be a fairly accurate representation of the amount
of outgoing traffic the server had, regardless of the web servers
reporting quirks.
Note: A kilobyte is 1024 bytes, not 1000 :)
Top Entry and Exit Pages
The Top Entry and Exit tables give a rough estimate of what URL's
are used to enter your site, and what the last pages viewed are.
Because of limitations in the HTTP protocol, log rotations, etc...
this number should be considered a good "rough guess" of the actual
numbers, however will give a good indication of the overall trend in
where users come into, and exit, your site.
Command Line Options
--------------------
The Webalizer supports many different configuration options that will
alter the way the program behaves and generates output. Most of these
can be specified on the command line, while some can only be specified
in a configuration file. The command line options are listed below,
with references to the corresponding configuration file keywords.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
General Options
---------------
-h Display all available command line options and exit program.
-v Display program version and exit program.
-d Display additional 'debugging' information for errors and
warnings produced during processing. This normally would
not be used except to determine why you are getting all those
errors and wanted to see the actual data. Normally The
Webalizer will just tell you it found an error, not the
actual data. This option will display the data as well.
Config file keyword: Debug
-F Specify that the log being used is a ftp log. Normally, the
Webalizer expects to find a valid CLF or Combined format
we server log file. This option allows you to process wu-ftpd
xferlogs as well.
Config file keyword: LogType
-f Fold out of sequence log records back into analysis, by
treating them as if they were the same date/time as the
last good record. Normally, out of sequence log records
are ignored. If you run apache, don't worry about this.
Config file keyword: FoldSeqErr
-i Ignore history file. USE WITH CAUTION. This causes The
Webalizer to ignore any existing history file produced from
previous runs and generate it's output from scratch. The
effect will be as if The Webalizer is being run for the
first time and any previous statistics will be lost (although
the HTML documents, if any, will not be deleted) on the main
index.html (yearly) web page.
Config file keyword: IgnoreHist
-p Preserve state (incremental processing). This allows the
processing of partial logs in increments. At the end of
the program, all relevant internal data is saved, so that
it may be restored the next time the program is run. This
allows sites that must rotate their logs more than once a
month to still be able to use The Webalizer, and not worry
about having to gather and feed an entire months logs to
the program at the end of the month. See the section on
"Incremental Processing" below for additional information.
The default is to not perform incremental processing. Use
this command line option to enable the feature.
Config file keyword: Incremental
-q Quiet mode. Normally, The Webalizer will produce various
messages while it runs letting you know what it's doing.
This option will suppress those messages. It should be
noted that this WILL NOT suppress errors and warnings, which
are output to STDERR.
Config file keyword: Quiet
-Q ReallyQuiet mode. This allows suppression of _all_ messages
generated by The Webalizer, including warnings and errors.
Useful when The Webalizer is run as a cron job.
Config file keyword: ReallyQuiet
-T Display timing information. The Webalizer keeps track of the
time it begins and ends processing, and normally displays the
total processing time at the end of each run. If quiet mode
(-q or 'Quiet yes' in configuration file) is specified, this
information is not displayed. This option forces the display
of timing totals if quiet mode has been specified, otherwise
it is redundant and will have no effect.
Config file keyword: TimeMe
-c file This option specifies a configuration file to use. Configuration
files allow greater control over how The Webalizer behaves, and
there are several ways to use them. As of version 0.98, The
Webalizer searches for a default configuration file in the
current directory named "webalizer.conf", and if not found,
will search in the /etc/ directory for a file of the same name.
In addition, you may specify a configuration file to use with
this command line option.
-n name This option specifies the hostname for the reports generated.
The hostname is used in the title of all reports, and is also
prepended to URL's in the reports. This allows The Webalizer
to be run on log files for 'virtual' web servers or web servers
that are different than the machine the reports are located on,
and still allows clicking on the URL's to go to the proper
location. If a hostname is not specified, either on the
command line or in a configuration file, The Webalizer attempts
to determine the hostname using a 'uname' system call. If this
fails, "localhost" will be used as the hostname.
Config file keyword: HostName
-o dir This options specifies the output directory for the reports.
If not specified here or in a configuration file, the current
default directory will be used for output.
Config file keyword: OutputDir
-x name This option allows the generated pages to have an extension
other than '.html', which is the default. Do not include the
leading period ('.') when you specify the extension.
Config file keyword: HTMLExtension
-P name Specify the file extensions for 'pages'. Pages (sometimes
called 'PageViews') are normally html documents and CGI
scripts that display the whole page, not just parts of it.
Some system will need to define a few more, such as 'phtml',
'php3' or 'pl' in order to have them counted as well. The
default is 'htm*' and 'cgi' for web logs and 'txt' for ftp.
Config file keyword: PageType
-t name This option specifies the title string for all reports. This
string is used, in conjunction with the hostname (if not blank)
to produce the actual title. If not specified, the default of
"Usage Statistics for" will be used.
Config file keyword: ReportTitle
-Y Supress Country graph. Normally, The Webalizer produces
country statistics in both Graph and Columnar forms. This
option will suppress the Country Graph from being generated.
Config file keyword: CountryGraph
-G Supress hourly graph. Normally, The Webalizer produces
hourly statistics in both Graph and Columnar forms. This
option will suppress the Hourly Graph only from being generated.
Config file keyword: HourlyGraph
-H Supress Hourly statistics. Normally, The Webalizer produces
hourly statistics in both Graph and Columnar forms. This
option will suppress the Hourly Statistics table only from
being generated.
Config file keyword: HourlyStats
-L Disable Graph Legends. The color coded legends displayed on
the in-line graphs can be disabled with this option. The
default is to display the legends.
Config file keyword: GraphLegend
-l num Graph Lines. Specify the number of background reference
lines displayed on the in-line graphics produced. The default
is 2 lines, however can range anywhere from zero ('0') for
no lines, up to 20 lines (looks funny!).
Config file keyword: GraphLines
-P name Page type. This is the extension of files you consider to
be pages for Pages calculations (sometimes called 'pageviews').
The default is 'htm*' and 'cgi' (plus whatever HTMLExtension
you specified if it is different). Don't use a period!
-m num Specify a 'visit timeout'. Visits are calculated by looking at
the time difference between the current and last request made
by a specific host. If the difference is greater that the
visit timeout value, the request is considered a new visit.
This value is specified in number of seconds. The default
is 30 minutes (1800).
Config file keyword: VisitTimeout
-M num Mangle user agent names. Normally, The Webalizer will keep
track of the user agent field verbatim. Unfortunately, there are
a ton of different names that user agents go by, and the field
also reports other items such as machine type and OS used. For
Example, Netscape 4.03 running on Windows 95 will report a
different string than Netscape 4.03 running on Windows NT, so even
though they are the same browser type, they will be considered
as two totally different browsers by The Webalizer. For that
matter, Netscape 4.0 running on Windows NT will report different
names if one is run on an Alpha and the other on an Intel
processor! Internet Exploder is even worse, as it reports itself
as if it were Netscape and you have to search the given string a
little deeper to discover that it is really MSIE! In order to
consolidate generic browser types, this option will cause The
Webalizer to 'mangle' the user agent field, attempting to
consolidate generic browser types. There are 6 levels that can be
specified, each producing different levels of detail. Level 5
displays only the browser name (MSIE or Mozilla) and the major
version number. Level 4 will also display the minor version
number (single decimal place). Level 3 will display the minor
version number to two decimal places. Level 2 will add any
sub-level designation (such as Mozilla/3.01Gold or MSIE 3.0b).
Level 1 will also attempt to add the system type. The default
Level 0 will disable name mangling and leave the user agent
field unmodified, producing the greatest amount of detail.
Configuration file keyword: MangleAgents
-g num This option allows you to specify the level of domains name
grouping to be performed. The numeric value represents the
level of grouping, and can be thought of as the 'number of
dots' to be displayed. The default value of 0 disables any
domain name grouping.
Configuration file keyword: GroupDomains
-D name This allows the specification of a DNS Cache file name. This
filename MUST be specified if you have dns lookups enabled
(using the -N command line switch or DNSChildren configuration
keyword). The filename is relative to the default output
directory if an absolute path is not specified (ie: starts
with a leading '/'). This option is only available if DNS
support was enabled at compile time, otherwise an 'Invalid
Keyword' error will be generated. See the DNS.README file
for additional information regarding DNS lookups.
-N num Number of DNS child processes to use for reverse DNS lookups.
If specified, a DNSCache name MUST be specified also. If you
do not wish a DNS cache file to be generated, specify a value
of zero ('0') to disable it. This does not prevent using an
existing cache file, only the generation of one at run time.
See the DNS.README file for additional information regarding
DNS lookups.
Hide Options
------------
The following options take a string argument to use as a comparison
for matching. Except for the IndexAlias option, the string argument
can be plain text, or plain text that either starts or ends with the
wildcard character '*'.
For Example:
Given the string "yourmama/was/here", the arguments "was", "*here" and
"your*" will all produce a match.
-a name This option allows hiding of user agents (browsers) from the
"Top User Agents" table in the report. This option really
isn't too useful as there are a zillion different names that
current browsers go by, depending where they were obtained,
however you might have some particular user agents that hit
your site a lot that you would like to exclude from the list.
You must have a web server that includes user agents in it's
log files for this option to be of any use. In addition, it
is also useless if you disable the user agent table in the
report (see the -A command line option or "TopAgents"
configuration file keyword). You can specify as many of these
as you want on the command line. The wildcard character '*'
can be used either in front of or at the end of the string.
(ie: Mozilla/4.0* would match anything that starts with the
string "Mozilla/4.0").
Config file keyword: HideAgent
-r name This option allows hiding of referrers from the "Top Referrer"
table in the report. Referrers are URL's, either on your own
local site or a remote site, that referred the user to a URL
on your web server. This option is normally used to hide
your own server from the table, as your own pages are usually
the top referrers to your own pages (well, you get the idea).
You must have a web server that includes referrer information
in the log files for this option to be of any use. In addition,
it is also useless if you disable the referrers table in the
report (see the -R command line option or "TopReferrers"
configuration file keyword). You can specify as many of these
as you like on the command line.
Config file keyword: HideReferrer
-s name This option allows hiding of sites from the "Top Sites" table
in the report. Normally, you will only want to hide your own
domain name from the report, as it usually is one of the top
sites to visit your web server. This option is of no use if
you disable the top sites table in the report (see the -S
command line option or "TopSites" configuration file option).
Config file keyword: HideSite
-X This causes all individual sites to be hidden, which results
in only grouped sites to be displayed on the report.
Config file keyword: HideAllSites
-u name This option allows hiding of URL's from the "Top URL's" table
in the report. Normally, this option is used to hide images,
audio files and other objects your web server dishes out that
would otherwise clutter up the table. This option is of no
use if you disable the top URL's table in the report (see the
-U command line option or "TopURLs" configuration file keyword).
Config file keyword: HideURL
-I name This option allows you to specify additional index.html aliases.
The Webalizer usually strips the string 'index.' from URL's
before processing, which has the effect of turning a URL such
as /somedir/index.html into just /somedir/ which is really the
same URL and should be treated as such. This option allows you
to specify _additional_ strings that are to be treated the same
way. Use with care, improper use could cause unexpected results.
For example, if you specify the alias string of 'home', a URL
such as /somedir/homepages/brad/home.html would be converted
into just /somedir/ which probably isn't what was intended.
This option is useful if your web server uses a different default
index page other than the standard 'index.html' or 'index.htm',
such as 'home.html' or 'homepage.html'. The string specified
is searched for _anywhere_ in the URL, so "home.htm" would
turn both "/somedir/home.htm" and "/somedir/home.html" into
just "/somedir/". Go easy on this one, each string specified
will be scanned for in EVERY log record, so if you specify a
bunch of these, you will notice degraded performance. Wildcards
are not allowed on this one.
Config file keyword: IndexAlias
Table Size Options
------------------
-e num This option specifies the number of entries to display in the
"Top Entry Pages" table. To disable the table, use a value of
zero (0).
Config file keyword: TopEntry
-E num This option specifies the number of entries to display in the
"Top Exit Pages" table. To disable the table, use a value of
zero (0).
Config file keyword: TopExit
-A num This option specifies the number of entries to display in the
"Top User Agents" table. To disable the table, use a value of
zero (0).
Config file keyword: TopAgents
-C num This option specifies the number of entries to display in the
"Top Countries" table. To disable the table, use a value of
zero (0).
Config file keyword: TopCountries
-R num This option specifies the number of entries to display in the
"Top Referrers" table. To disable the table, use a value of
zero (0).
Config file keyword: TopReferrers
-S num This option specifies the number of entries to display in the
"Top Sites" table. To disable the table, use a value of
zero (0).
Config file keyword: TopSites
-U num This option specifies the number of entries to display in the
"Top URL's" table. To disable the table, use a value of
zero (0).
Config file keyword: TopURLs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONFIGURATION FILES
-------------------
The Webalizer allows configuration files to be used in order to simplify
life for all. There are several ways that configuration files are accessed
by the Webalizer. When The Webalizer first executes, it looks for a
default configuration file named "webalizer.conf" in the current directory,
and if not found there, will look for "/etc/webalizer.conf". In addition,
configuration files may be specified on the command line with the '-c'
option. There are lots of different ways you can combine the use of
configuration files and command line options to produce various results.
The Webalizer always looks for and reads configuration options from a
default configuration file before doing anything else. Because of this,
you can override options found in the default file by use of additional
configuration files specified on the command line or command line options
themselves. If you specify a configuration file on the command line, you
can override options in it by additional command line options which follow.
For example, most users will most likely want to create the default file
/etc/webalizer.conf and place options in it to specify the hostname, log
file, table options, etc... At the end of the month when a different log
file is to be used (the end of month log), you can run The Webalizer as
usual, but put the different filename on the end of the command line, which
will override the log file specified in the configuration file. It should
be noted that you cannot override some configuration file options by the
use of command line arguments. For example, if you specify "Quiet yes" in
a configuration file, you cannot override this with a command line argument,
as the command line option only _enables_ the feature (-q option).
The configuration files are standard ASCII text files that may be created
or edited using any standard editor. Blank lines and lines that begin
with a pound sign ('#') are ignored. Any other lines are considered to
be configuration lines, and have the form "Keyword Value", where the
'Keyword' is one of the currently available configuration keywords defined
below, and 'Value' is the value to assign to that particular option. Any
text found after the keyword up to the end of the line is considered the
keyword's value, so you should not include anything after the actual value
on the line that is not actually part of the value being assigned. The
file "sample.conf" provided with the distribution contains lots of useful
documentation and examples as well. It should be noted that you do not
have to use any configuration files at all, in which case, default values
will be used (which should be sufficient for most sites).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
General Configuration Keywords
------------------------------
LogFile This defines the log file to use. It should be a fully qualified
name (ie: contain the path), but relative names will work as
well. If not specified, the logfile defaults to STDIN.
LogType This specified the log file type being used. Normally, The
Webalizer processes web logs in either CLF or Combined format.
You may also process wu-ftpd xferlog formatted logs, or squid
proxy logs by setting the appropriate type using this keyword.
Values may be either 'clf', 'ftp' or 'squid'. Ensure that you
specify the proper file type, otherwise you will be presented
with a long stream of 'invalid record' messages ;)
Command line argument: -F
OutputDir This defines the output directory to use for the reports. If
it is not specified, the current directory is used.
Command line argument: -o
HistoryName Allows specification of a history path/filename if desired.
The default is to use the file named 'webalizer.hist', kept
in the normal output directory (OutputDir above). Any name
specified is relative to the normal output directory unless
an absolute path name is given (ie: starts with a '/').
ReportTitle This specifies the title to use for the generated reports.
It is used in conjunction with the hostname (unless blank)
to produce the final report titles. If not defined, the
default of "Usage Statistics for" is used.
Command line argument: -t
HostName This defines the hostname. The hostname is used in the
report title as well as being prepended to URL's in the
"Top URL's" table. This allows The Webalizer to be run
on "virtual" web servers, or servers that do not reside
on the local machine, and allows clicking on the URL to
go to the right place. If not specified, The Webalizer
attempts to get the hostname via a 'uname' system call,
and if that fails, will default to "localhost".
Command line argument: -n
UseHTTPS Causes the links in the 'Top URL's' table to use 'https://'
instead of the default 'http://' prefix. Not much use if
you run a mix of secure/insecure servers on your machine.
Only useful if you run the analysis on a secure servers
logs, and want the links in the table to work properly.
Quiet This allows you to enable or disable informational messages
while it is running. The values for this keyword can be
either 'yes' or 'no'. Using "Quiet yes" will suppress these
messages, while "Quiet no" will enable them. The default
is 'no' if not specified, which will allow The Webalizer
to display informational messages. It should be noted that
this option has no effect on Warning or Error messages that
may be generated, as they go to STDERR.
Command line argument: -q
TimeMe This allows you to display timing information regardless of
any "quiet mode" specified. Useful only if you did in fact
tell the webalizer to be quiet either by using the -q command
line option or the "Quiet" keyword, otherwise timing stats
are normally displayed anyway. Values may be either 'yes'
or 'no', with the default being 'no'.
Command line argument: -T
GMTTime This keyword allows timestamps to be displayed in GMT (UTC)
time instead of local time. Normally The Webalizer will
display timestamps in the time-zone of the local machine
(ie: PST or EDT). This keyword allows you to specify the
display of timestamps in GMT (UTC) time instead. Values
may be either 'yes' or 'no'. Default is 'no'.
Debug This tells The Webalizer to display additional information
when it encounters Warnings or Errors. Normally, The
Webalizer will just tell you it found a bad record or
field. This option will enable the display of the actual
data that produced the Warning or Error as well. Useful
only if you start getting lots of Warnings or Errors and
want to determine the cause. Values may be either 'yes'
or 'no', with the default being 'no'.
Command line argument: -d
IgnoreHist This suppresses the reading of a history file. USE WITH
EXTREME CAUTION as the history file is how The Webalizer
keeps track of previous months. The effect of this option
is as if The Webalizer was being run for the very first
time, and any previous data is discarded. Values may be
either 'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'no'.
Command line argument: -i
FoldSeqErr Allows log records that are out of sequence to be folded
back into the analysis, by treating them as if they had
the same date/time as the last good record. Normally,
out of sequence log records are simply ignored. If you
run apache, don't worry about this.
VisitTimeout Set the 'visit timeout' value. Visits are determined by
looking at the time difference between the current and last
request made by a specific site. If the difference in time
is greater than the visit timeout value, the request is
considered a new visit. The value is in number of seconds,
and defaults to 30 minutes (1800).
Command line argument: -m
PageType Allows you to define the 'page' type extension. Normally,
people consider HTML and CGI scripts as 'pages'. This
option allows you to specify what extensions you consider
a page. Default is 'htm*' and 'cgi' for web logs, and
'txt' for ftp logs.
Command line argument: -P
GraphLegend Enable/disable the display of color coded legends on the
produced graphs. Default is 'yes', to display them.
Command line argument: -L
GraphLines Specify the number of background reference lines to display
on produced graphs. The default is 2. To disable the use
of background lines, use zero ('0').
Command line argument: -l
CountryGraph This keyword is used to either enable or disable the creation
and display of the Country Usage graph. Values may be either
'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'yes'.
Command line argument: -Y
DailyGraph This keyword is used to either enable or disable the creation
and display of the Daily Usage graph. Values may be either
'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'yes'.
DailyStats This keyword is used to either enable or disable the creation
and display of the Daily Usage statistics table. Values may
be either 'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'yes'.
HourlyGraph This keyword is used to either enable or disable the creation
and display of the Hourly Usage graph. Values may be either
'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'yes'.
Command line argument: -G
HourlyStats This keyword is used to either enable or disable the creation
and display of the Hourly Usage statistics table. Values may
be either 'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'yes'.
Command line argument: -H
IndexAlias This allows additional 'index.html' aliases to be defined.
Normally, The Webalizer scans for and strips the string
"index." from URL's before processing them. This turns a
URL such as /somedir/index.html into just /somedir/ which
is really the same URL. This keyword allows _additional_
names to be treated in the same fashion for sites that use
different default names, such as "home.html". The string
is scanned for anywhere in the URL, so care should be used
if and when you define additional aliases. For example,
if you were to use an alias such as 'home', the URL
/somedir/homepages/brad/home.html would be turned into just
/somedir/ which probably isn't the intended result. Instead,
you should have specified 'home.htm' which would correctly
turn the URL into /somedir/homepages/brad/ like intended.
It should also be noted that specified aliases are scanned
for in EVERY log record... A bunch of aliases will noticeably
degrade performance as each record has to be scanned for
every alias defined. You don't have to specify 'index.' as
it is always the default.
Command line argument: -I
MangleAgents The MangleAgents keyword specifies the level of user agent
name mangling, if any. There are 6 levels that may be specified,
each producing a different level of detail displayed. Level 5
displays only the browser name (MSIE or Mozilla) and the major
version number. Level 4 adds the minor version (single
decimal place). Level 3 adds the minor version to two decimal
places. Level 2 will also add any sub-level designation
(such as Mozilla/3.01Gold or MSIE 3.0b). Level 1 will also
attempt to add the system type. The default level 0 will
leave the user agent field unmodified and produces the
greatest amount of detail.
Command line argument: -M
SearchEngine This keyword allows specification of search engines and
their query strings. Search strings are obtained from
the referrer field in the record, and in order to work
properly, the Webalizer needs to know what query strings
different search engines use. The SearchEngine allows
you to specify the search engine and it's query string
to parse the search string from. The line is formatted
as: "SearchEngine engine-string query-string" where
'engine-string' is a substring for matching the search
engine with, such as "yahoo.com" or "altavista". The
'query-string' is the unique query string that is added
to the URL for the search engine, such as "search=" or
"MT=" with the actual search strings appended to the
end. There is no command line option for this keyword.
Incremental This allows incremental processing to be enabled or disabled.
Incremental processing allows processing partial logs without
the loss of detail data from previous runs in the same month.
This feature saves the 'internal state' of the program so that
it may be restored in following runs. See the section above
titled "Incremental Processing" for additional information.
The value may be 'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'no'.
Command line argument: -p
IncrementalName
Allows specification of the incremental data filename if
desired. Normally, the file named "webalizer.current' is
used, kept in the standard output directory. If specified,
filenames are relative to the standard output directory,
unless an absolute name is given (ie: starts with '/').
DNSCache Specifies the DNS cache filename. This name is relative
to the default output directory unless an absolute name
is given (ie: starts with '/'). See the DNS.README file
for additional information.
DNSChildren The number of DNS children processes to run in order to
create/update the DNS cache file. If specified, the DNS
cache filename must also be specified (see above). Use
a value of zero ('0') to disable. See the DNS.README
file for additional information.
Top Table Keywords
------------------
TopAgents This allows you to specify how many "Top" user agents are
displayed in the "Top User Agents" table. The default
is 15. If you do not want to display user agent statistics,
specify a value of zero (0). The display of user agents
will only work if your web server includes this information
in its log file (ie: a combined log format file).
Command line argument: -A
AllAgents Will cause a separate HTML page to be generated for all
normally visable User Agents. A link will be added to
the bottom of the "Top User Agents" table if enabled.
Value can be either 'yes' or 'no', with 'no' being the
default.
TopCountries This allows you to specify how many "Top" countries are
displayed in the "Top Countries" table. The default is
30. If you want to disable the countries table, specify
a value of zero (0).
Command line argument: -C
TopReferrers This allows you to specify how many "Top" referrers are
displayed in the "Top Referrers" table. The default is
30. If you want to disable the referrers table, specify
a value of zero (0). The display of referrer information
will only work if your web server includes this information
in its log file (ie: a combined log format file).
Command line argument: -R
AllReferrers Will cause a separate HTML page to be generated for all
normally visable Referrers. A link will be added to the
"Top Referrers" table if enabled. Value can be either
'yes' or 'no', with 'no' being the default.
TopSites This allows you to specify how many "Top" sites are
displayed in the "Top Sites" table. The default is 30.
If you want to disable the sites table, specify a value
of zero (0).
Command line argument: -S
TopKSites Identical to TopSites, except for the 'by KByte' table.
Default is 10. No command line switch for this one.
AllSites Will cause a separate HTML page to be generated for all
normally visable Sites. A link will be added to the
bottom of the "Top Sites" table if enabled. Value can
be either 'yes' or 'no', with 'no' being the default.
TopURLs This allows you to specify how many "Top" URL's are
displayed in the "Top URL's" table. The default is 30.
If you want to disable the URL's table, specify a value
of zero (0).
Command line argument: -U
TopKURLs Identical to TopURLs, except for the 'by KByte' table.
Default is 10. No command line switch for this one.
AllURLs Will cause a separate HTML page to be generated for all
normally visable URLs. A link will be added to the
bottom of the "Top URLs" table if enabled. Value can
be either 'yes' or 'no', with 'no' being the default.
TopEntry Allows you to specify how many "Top Entry Pages" are
displayed in the table. The default is 10. If you
want to disable the table, specify a value of zero (0).
Command line argument: -e
TopExit Allows you to specify how many "Top Exit Pages" are
displayed in the table. The default is 10. If you
want to disable the table, specify a value of zero (0).
Command line argument: -E
TopSearch Allows you to specify how many "Top Search Strings" are
displayed in the table. The default is 20. If you
want to disable the table, specify a value of zero (0).
Only works if using combined log format (ie: contains
referrer information).
TopUsers This allows you to specify how many "Top" usernames are
displayed in the "Top Usernames" table. Usernames are
only available if you use http authentication on your
web server, or when processing wu-ftpd xferlogs. The
default value is 20. If you want to disable the Username
table, specify a value of zero (0).
AllUsers Will cause a separate HTML page to be generated for all
normally visable usernames. A link will be added to the
bottom of the "Top Usernames" table if enabled. Value
can be either 'yes' or 'no', with 'no' being the default.
AllSearchStr Will create a separate HTML page to be generated for all
normally visable Search Strings. A link will be added
to the bottom of the "Top Search Strings" table if
enabled. Value can be either 'yes' or 'no', with 'no'
being the default.
Hide Object Keywords
--------------------
These keywords allow you to hide user agents, referrers, sites, URL's
and usernames from the various "Top" tables. The value for these keywords
are the same as those used in their command line counterparts. You
can specify as many of these as you want without limit. Refer to the
section above on "Command Line Options" for a description of the string
formatting used as the value. Values cannot exceed 80 characters in
length.
HideAgent This allows specified user agents to be hidden from the
"Top User Agents" table. Not very useful, since there
a zillion different names by which browsers go by today,
but could be useful if there is a particular user agent
(ie: robots, spiders, real-audio, etc..) that hits your
site frequently enough to make it into the top user agent
listing. This keyword is useless if 1) your log file does
not provide user agent information or 2) you disable the
user agent table.
Command line argument: -a
HideReferrer This allows you to hide specified referrers from the
"Top Referrers" table. Normally, you would only specify
your own web server to be hidden, as it is usually the
top generator of references to your own pages. Of course,
this keyword is useless if 1) your log file does not include
referrer information or 2) you disable the top referrers
table.
Command line argument: -r
HideSite This allows you to hide specified sites from the "Top
Sites" table. Normally, you would only specify your own
web server or other local machines to be hidden, as they
are usually the highest hitters of your web site, especially
if you have their browsers home page pointing to it.
Command line argument: -s
HideAllSites This allows hiding all indvidual sites from the display,
which can be useful when a lot of groupings are being
used (since grouped records cannot be hidden). It is
particularly useful in conjunction with the GroupDomain
feature, however can be useful in other situations as well.
Value can be either 'yes' or 'no', with 'no' the default.
Command line argument: -X
HideURL This allows you to hide URL's from the "Top URL's" table.
Normally, this is used to hide items such as graphic files,
audio files or other 'non-html' files that are transferred
to the visiting user.
Command line argument: -u
HideUser This allows you to hide Usernames from the "Top Usernames"
table. Usernames are only available if you use http based
authentication on your web server.
Group Object Keywords
---------------------
The Group* keywords allow object grouping based on Site, URL, Referrer,
User Agent and Usernames. Combined with the Hide* keywords, you can
customize exactly what will be displayed in the 'Top' tables. For example,
to only display totals for a particular directory, use a GroupURL and
HideURL with the same value (ie: '/help/*'). Group processing is only
done after the individual record has been fully processed, so name mangling
and site total updates have already been performed. Because of this, groups
are not counted in the main site total (as that would cause duplication).
Groups can be displayed in bold and shaded as well. Grouped records are
not, by default, hidden from the report. This allows you to display a
grouped total, while still being able to see the individual records, even
if they are part of the group. If you want to hide the detail records,
follow the Group* directive with a Hide* one using the same value. There
are no command line switches for these keywords. The Group* keywords also
accept an optional label to be displayed instead of the actual value used.
This label should be separated from the value by at least one whitespace
character, such as a space or tab character. See the sample.conf file
for examples.
GroupReferrer Allows grouping Referrers. Can be handy for some of the
major search engines that have multiple host names a
referral could come from.
GroupURL This keyword allows grouping URL's. Useful for grouping
complete directory trees.
GroupSite This keywords allows grouping Sites. Most used for
grouping top level domains and unresolved IP address
for local dial-ups, etc...
GroupAgent Groups User Agents. A handy example of how you could use
this one is to use "Mozilla" and "MSIE" as the values for
GroupAgent and HideAgent keywords. Make sure you put the
"MSIE" one first.
GroupDomains Allows automatic grouping of domains. The numeric value
represents the level of grouping, and can be thought of
as 'the number of dots' to display. A 1 will display
second level domains only (xxx.xxx), a 2 will display
third level domains (xxx.xxx.xxx) etc... The default
value of 0 disables any domain grouping.
Command line argument: -g
GroupUser Allows grouping of usernames. Combined with a group
name, this can be handy for displaying statistics on
a particular group of users without displaying their
real usernames.
GroupShading Allows shading of table rows for groups. Value can be
'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'yes'.
GroupHighlight Allows bolding of table rows for groups. Value can be
'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'yes'.
Ignore/Include Object Keywords
----------------------
These keywords allow you to completely ignore log records when generating
statistics, or to force their inclusion regardless of ignore criteria.
Records can be ignored or included based on site, URL, user agent, referrer
and username. Be aware that by choosing to ignore records, the accuracy of
the generated statistics become skewed, making it impossible to produce
an accurate representation of load on the web server. These keywords
behave identical to the Hide* keywords above, where the value can have
a leading or trailing wildcard '*'. These keywords, like the Hide* ones,
have an absolute limit of 80 characters for their values. These keywords
do not have any command line switch counterparts, so they may only be
specified in a configuration file. It should also be pointed out that
using the Ignore/Include combination to selectively exclude an entire
site while including a particular 'chunk' is _extremely_ inefficient,
and should be avoided. Try grep'ing the records into a separate file
and process it instead.
IgnoreSite This allows specified sites to be completely ignored from
the generated statistics.
IgnoreURL This allows specified URL's to be completely ignored from
the generated statistics. One use for this keyword would
be to ignore all hits to a 'temporary' directory where
development work is being done, but is not accessible to
the outside world.
IgnoreReferrer This allows records to be ignored based on the referrer
field.
IgnoreAgent This allows specified User Agent records to be completely
ignored from the statistics. Maybe useful if you really
don't want to see all those hits from MSIE :)
IgnoreUser This allows specified username records to be completely
ignored from the statistics. Usernames can only be used
if you use http authentication on your server.
IncludeSite Force the record to be processed based on hostname. This
takes precedence over the Ignore* keywords.
IncludeURL Force the record to be processed based on URL. This takes
precedence over the Ignore* keywords.
IncludeReferrer Force the record to be processed based on referrer.
This takes precedence over the Ignore* keywords.
IncludeAgent Force the record to be processed based on user agent.
This takes precedence over the Ignore* keywords.
IncludeUser Force the record to be processed based on username.
Usernames are only available if you use http based
authentication on your server. This takes precedence over
the Ignore* keywords.
Dump Object Keywords
--------------------
The Dump* Keywords allow text files to be generated that can then be used
for import into most database, spreadsheet and other external programs.
The file is a standard tab delimited text file, meaning that each column
is separated by a tab (0x09) character. A header record may be included
if required, using the 'DumpHeader' keyword. Since these files contain
all records that have been processed, including normally hidden records,
an alternate location for the files can be specified using the 'DumpPath'
keyword, otherwise they will be located in the default output directory.
DumpPath Specifies an alternate location for the dump files. The
default output location will be used otherwise. The value
is the path portion to use, and normally should be an
absolute path (ie: has a leading '/' character), however
relative path names can be used as well, and will be
relative to the output directory location.
DumpExtension Allows the dump filename extensions to be specified. The
default extension is "tab", however may be changed with
this option.
DumpHeader Allows a header record to be written as the first record
of the file. Value can be either 'yes' or 'no', with
the default being 'no'.
DumpSites Dump tab delimited sites file. Value can be either 'yes'
or 'no', with the default being 'no'. The filename used
is site_YYYYMM.tab (YYYY=year, MM=month).
DumpURLs Dump tab delimited url file. Value can be either 'yes' or
'no', with the default being 'no'. The filename used is
url_YYYYMM.tab (YYYY=year, MM=month).
DumpReferrers Dump tab delimited referrer file. Value can be either
'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'no'. Filename
used is ref_YYYYMM.tab (YYYY=year, MM=month). Referrer
information is only available if present in the log
file (ie: combined web server log).
DumpAgents Dump tab delmited user agent file. Value can be either
'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'no'. Filename
used is agent_YYYYMM.tab (YYYY=year, MM=month). User
agent information is only available if present in the
log file (ie: combined web server log).
DumpUsers Dump tab delimited username file. Value can be either
'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'no'. FIlename
used is user_YYYYMM.tab (YYYY=year, MM=month). The
username data is only avilable if processing a wu-ftpd
xferlog or http authentication is used on the web server
and that information is present in the log.
DumpSearchStr Dump tab delimited search string file. Value can be
either 'yes' or 'no', with the default being 'no'.
Filename used is search_YYYYMM.tab (YYYY=year, MM=month).
the search string data is only available if referrer
information is present in the log being processed and
recognized search engines were found and processed.
HTML Generation Keywords
------------------------
These keywords allow you to customize the HTML code that The Webalizer
produces, such as adding a corporate logo or links to other web pages.
You can specify as many of these keywords as you like, and they will be
used in the order that they are found in the file. Values cannot exceed
80 characters in length, so you may have to break long lines up into two
or more lines. There are no command line counterparts to these keywords.
HTMLExtension Allows generated pages to use something other than the
default 'html' extension for the filenames. Do not
include the leading period ('.') when you specify the
extension.
Command line argument: -x
HTMLPre Allows code to be inserted at the very beginning of the
HTML files. Defaults to the standard HTML 3.2 DOCTYPE
record. Be careful not to include any HTML here, as it
is inserted _before_ the tag in the file. Use it
for server-side scripting capabilities, such as php3, to
insert scripting files and other directives.
HTMLHead Allows you to insert HTML code between the
block. There is no default. Useful for adding scripts
to the HTML page, such as Javascript or php3, or even
just for adding a few META tags to the document.
HTMLBody This keyword defines HTML code to be placed immediately
after the section of the report, just before the
title and "summary period/generated on" lines. If used,
the first HTMLHead line MUST include a tag. Put
whatever else you want in subsequent lines, but keep in
mind the placement of this code in relation to the title
and other aspects
