The default configuration file is very long. The same goes for all the other things AWStats makes statistics of.ĪWStats is highly configurable, but only to a degree. You can expand the short list of operating systems used by visitors on the "Summary page" and get a very long list. How many items are shown in the summary in each section is configurable. Most of the items listed in the Summary offer a "Full list" view where you can see more than just the top 10 items, or top XXX.

Top search phrases and top search keywords.

Top "Downloads" (you can configure what file types are and aren't "downloads").

Top countries (if you configured it to use a GeoIP database).

No way to specify what is and isn't a web crawler bot without editing a Perl source fileĪWStats creates a portal where you can view pretty much everything you would want to know about a websites traffic on a single Summary page.

It doesn't matter if a million people hammered the static HTML pages it creates.

This is a disadvantage compared to less feature-rich alternatives like Webalizer.

AWStats is meant to be used with authentication and you should do that if you use it, it is unsuitable as a public-facing portal.

That's specially true if you enable a GenIP database and click "Hosts, Full list". Some of the pages in the on-the-fly generated statistics portal are a bit resource-intensive and slow to load.Takes a while to setup and configure, just reading through the example configuration file takes forever.Requires configuring the web server to allow Perl to run in a /awstats/ ScriptAlias.

A bit hard and time-consuming to install and configure.

Can either be used to create static HTML pages (using /tools/awstats_ or create them from the statistics page on-the-fly.

Supports using a Geo-IP database (optional) to provide geographical information about visitors.

Offers the option of adding a JavaScript tracker to pages for additional metrics like visitors screen size, color depth and JavaScript status (enabled/disabled).

Creates a statistics file from parsed logs so you can throw the old logs away once it's done with it.

Generates numerous reports in all areas, it has all the bases covered.

No web page tags or JavaScript required (It can optionally use a JS tracker script for additional details)

Provides a nice and simple overview of a websites traffic.

If you still see the same result, you might want to try to clear your cache and refresh the page again. To view the updated statistics, visit your AWStats HTML page. If you have new qualified records, means you are doing it correctly to process the old log files. Once the process is completed, you should get the following line:

-LogFile The location of the log file that contains the old and current logs.

-configdir The directory that stores the AWStats config files.

-config Usually it's your site domain name.Perl /var/-configdir=/etc/awstats -LogFile=/var/logs/httpd/gix.my.log -update Otherwise AWStats will report that the older logs that you processed are old records and will not be added to your statistics database. This is what every forum and guide didn't mention based on our research - you will need to create an empty awstatsMMYYYY.txt file of the particular month. With that being said, you need to remove .txt and .txt. The format of how AWStats save its data is awstatsMMYYYY.txt. In this case, we will need to remove both March and February 2013 data file. One thing about AWStats is that if you wish to process previous months, you will need to remove starting from the current month. Let's say for example the current month is March 2013, but you wish to process the statistics data for the month of February 2013. Make sure that you have the old log files that needs to be processed by AWStats. In our case, we are using Virtualmin that installs the AWStats and by default the DataDir of the site is stored in /var/the directory that stores all the AWstats data files would be in /var/You may want to backup that folder first before you start to do anything with the files. Look for your DataDir of your website and remove the particular month of the file. It is suggested that you backup every file involved in this guide beforehand.
