<p>In most of the cases, there is more than just one website on a server.<br />
Though, it is very important that you can measure the stats of all the websites separately.<br />
I&#8217;ll tell you in a few lines how you can achieve this with <a href="http://www.mrunix.net/webalizer/" target="_blank">webalizer</a>.</p>
<p><span id="more-34"></span></p>
<p>This tutorial is tested with Webalizer on Ubunty but I presume it will work almost the same way in other distros.</p>
<p>First of all you have to install webalizer on your system.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
sudo apt-get install webalizer
</pre>
<p>After installation of webalizer, the configurationfiles are per default stored in /etc/webalizer.<br />
Move to that directory and make a copy of the config-file.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
sudo cp webalizer.conf MySiteName.conf
</pre>
<p>When the copy is created you have to open it in your favorite editor (I use vim)</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
sudo vim MySiteName.conf
</pre>
<p>Scroll down till you find the LogFileattribute and change it to the accesslogfile of MySiteName.<br />
You also have to tell the script where the outputfiles will be stored. This is normally a place which is accessible by the browser.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
LogFile /www/mysite/logs/access.log
OutputDir /www/mysite/public_html/webalizer
</pre>
<p>These are the only 2 parameters which you have to change. You can scroll through the rest of the file and make changes towards your preferences.</p>
<p>All is done now so you can run webalizer with the new configuration file</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
webalizer -c /etc/webalizer/MySiteName.conf
</pre>
<p>Webalizer will run and should be accessible through your webbrowser.<br />
Obviously, it would kinda suck if you have to run the webalizerscript every time you want to see the stats so we gonna make a cron which will run the script every hour</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
crontab -e
</pre>
<p>And fill in:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
0 * * * * webalizer -c /etc/webalizer/MySiteName.conf
</pre>
<p>Voila, all done <img src='http://dev.eek.be/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
