- Server / Logfiles
Define first which server you are running and which logfile format
your server is using. If you use compressed/split logfile, give the
log filename structure and the tool to uncompress them.
- Path
Then the package need to know where the stats will be output, where
the cgi and root server are located and finally the logfile path and
log filename suffix.
- Filtering
Next step is to give the filtering rules. Do you need to exclude some
hosts, some part of your server or some directories or maybe some
countries ?
You can also exclude robot, framed page or referer spammer.
If you need some detailled stats about few pages or directories, add
them in the list and you'll have some extra stats.
- Threshold / Domain
Only interested in the top stats ? Enter threshold to display the
most successful items. If you want stats about your own domain, you
can include them with the full stats or just filtering just your
domain. SPIP user should activate the extra stats available for them.

- Reverse DNS
Building configuration file
|
If your logfile have only IP addresses, using reverse dns convert
them to hostname which allow country stats to be made ... but it's a
very consuming task to query IP through the Net. The Geo::IP module
allow to do the same job by querying a local file, faster but not as
accurate (and you'll need to install this Perl module).
|
- Display
Select in which languages the stats will be output. Graphs can also be
selected between lines, bar charts or 3d bar charts. Links, texts and
background can be altered here. But if you need to alter the display,
modify the css provided with the package.
- Stats
Finally, choose which stats should be running and when.
