AWStats presentation

AWStats is an open source log analysis system developed using Perl language. It can be used not only to analyze Apache web server access logs, but also to analyze log information of Samba, Vsftpd, IIS and other services. Combined with scheduled task services such as crond, growing log content can be analyzed periodically.

AWStats requires PERL environment support to run. From AWStats documentation, it supports Apache HTTP Server perfectly, and when we use Nginx server, it becomes very troublesome to run AWStats. First of all, Nginx itself has weak support for Perl, and even the official does not recommend using it. In addition, the log format needs to be modified to run smoothly.

Here is how to generate static pages by making AWStats count the results of nginx server logs, and then access the logs through the Nginx site.

Environment:

CentOS 7 operating system

Server IP address: 192.168.40.15

AWStats-7.6.tar.gz Baidu net disk password: auwy

Nginx server has been deployed (log directory: /user/local/nginx/logs/access. log)

DNS forward resolution has been completed, and the server can be accessed normally through www.test.com (please refer to:DNS domain name resolution service (forward resolution, reverse resolution, master-slave server) Part 1 Forward resolution)

Purpose:

Add AWStates log analysis system to Nginx site www.test.com

Deployment Services:

Before installing AWStates, make sure the Perl environment is installed on the server

perl -version

1. Unzip and install AWStates software package (can be downloaded to my Baidu cloud disk)

#Extract awstats package to/usr/local/

tar zxvf awstats-7.6.tar.gz -C /usr/local/

#rename awstats

mv /usr/local/awstats-7.6 /usr/local/awstats

#change awstats to belong to main group

chown root.root -R /usr/local/awstats

#Go to tools directory cd /usr/local/awstats/tools/

2. Create a new site statistics configuration file for www.test.com, using the awstats_configure.pl script provided by AWStates system, as follows:

./ awstats_configure.pl

----- AWStats awstats_configure 1.0 (build 20140126) (c) Laurent Destailleur -----

This tool will help you to configure AWStats to analyze statistics for

one web server. You can try to use it to let it do all that is possible

in AWStats setup, however following the step by step manual setup

documentation (docs/index.html) is often a better idea. Above all if:

You are not an administrator user,

You want to analyze downloaded log files without web server,

You want to analyze mail or ftp log files instead of web log files,

You need to analyze load balanced servers log files,

You want to 'understand' all possible ways to use AWStats...

Read the AWStats documentation (docs/index.html).

-----> Running OS detected: Linux, BSD or Unix

-----> Check for web server install

Enter full config file path of your Web server.

Example: /etc/httpd/httpd.conf

Example: /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf

Example: c:\Program files\apache group\apache\conf\httpd.conf

Config file path ('none' to skip web server setup):

none #nginx server, enter 'none' Skip

-----> Check and complete web server config file '/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf'

Add 'Alias /awstatsclasses "/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/classes/"'

Add 'Alias /awstatscss "/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/css/"'

Add 'Alias /awstatsicons "/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/icon/"'

Add 'ScriptAlias /awstats/ "/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/"'

Add '' directive

AWStats directives added to Apache config file.

-----> Update model config file '/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.model.conf'

File awstats.model.conf updated.

-----> Need to create a new config file ?

Do you want me to build a new AWStats config/profile

file (required if first install) [y/N] ? y #Enter y to create a new statistical configuration

-----> Define config file name to create

What is the name of your web site or profile analysis ?

Example: www.mysite.com

Example: demo

Your web site, virtual server or profile name:

www.test.com #Domain name entered for statistics:www.test.com

-----> Define config file path

In which directory do you plan to store your config file(s) ?

Default: /etc/awstats

Directory path to store config file(s) (Enter for default):

#Direct "Enter"

-----> Create config file '/etc/awstats/awstats.www.test.com.conf'

Config file /etc/awstats/awstats.www.test.com.conf created.

-----> Restart Web server with '/sbin/service httpd restart'

Stopping httpd: [ OK ]

Starting httpd: [ OK ]

-----> Add update process inside a scheduler

Sorry, configure.pl does not support automatic add to cron yet.

You can do it manually by adding the following command to your cron:

/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -update -config=www.test.com

Or if you have several config files and prefer having only one command:

/usr/local/awstats/tools/awstats_updateall.pl now

Press ENTER to continue...

A SIMPLE config file has been created: /etc/awstats/awstats.www.test.com.conf

You should have a look inside to check and change manually main parameters.

You can then manually update your statistics for 'www.test.com' with command:

perl awstats.pl -update -config=www.test.com

You can also read your statistics for 'www.test.com' with URL:

http://localhost/awstats/awstats.pl? config=www.test.com

Press ENTER to finish... #Direct "Enter" Exit

3. Modify www.test.com statistics profile

vim /etc/awstats/awstats.www.test.com.conf

......

LogFile="/usr/local/nginx/logs/access.log" Line #50, modify the nginx log file location

DirData="/var/lib/awstats" #220 line, data directory, awstats directory does not exist by default (need to create)

......

Create/var/lib/awstats directory

mkdir -p /var/lib/awstats

4. Update analysis log file

/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -update -config=www.test.com

5. Generate static analysis log web data

/usr/local/awstats/tools/awstats_buildstaticpages.pl -update -config=www.test.com -lang=cn -dir=/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot -awstatsprog=/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl

The above order is interpreted as follows:

/usr/local/awstats/tools/awstats_buildstaticpages.pl: awstats static page generation tool

- update -config= www.test.com: update configuration domain name

-lang=cn: Language is Chinese

dir=/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot: Directory of statistics output

awstatsprog=/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl Path to log updater

6. Set up timed tasks for Awstats to update automatically (23:59 daily)

vim /etc/crontab

59 23 * root /usr/local/awstats/tools/awstats_buildstaticpages.pl -update -config=www.test.com -lang=cn -dir=/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot -awstatsprog=/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl

Or as shown below:

Start crond service

systemctl start crond.service

7. Create awstats virtual directory in HTML of nginx

The requested URL/usr/local/nginx/html was not found on this server.

The requested URL/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/wstats.html was not found on this server.

8. Create a configuration file for the awstats virtual directory in nginx, without affecting normal ip access

vi /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf

server {

listen 80 ;

server_name localhost; Note: localhost here can be modified to local ip

location /awstats {

root html;

index index.html awstats.www.test.com.html;

}

}

As shown in the picture

9. restart nginx

Nginx -t

Systemctl restart nginx

10. test

Visit AWStats log analysis system URL: 192.168.40.15/awstats

normal ip address access

Visit with the domain name www.test.com

That's the whole experiment.
