How to install and configure webalizer in multiple domain on RHEL 5.5

Installing through source code

1.First we need to download the webalizer source code first

#wget ftp://ftp.mrunix.net/pub/webalizer/webalizer-2.20-01-src.tgz

1.Then we need to uncompress it

# tar zxvf webalizer-2.20-01-src.tgz

3.Makesure you have gcc compiler and Gd library installed, you can installed it using yum

# yum install gcc gcc-c++ gd-devel

4.Then we go to webalizer-2.20-01 directory , compile and install it

# cd webalizer-2.20-01

#./configure

# make

# make install

5.It is installed and you can checked the version now

# webalizer --version

Webalizer V2.20-01 (Linux 2.6.18-92.1.1.el5.028stab057.2 i686)

6.Installing with YUM

1.Just run the yum install command

# yum -y install webalizer

Now we make a website using httpd.conf and add a log entry in this configuration.

# vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

go in the end of this file and edit the data-

<VirtualHost 192.168.0.10>

ServerName nuts.com

ServerAdmin root@nuts.com

DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/nuts.com"

CustomLog "/var/www/html/nuts.com/logs/access_log" common

DirectoryIndex index.html shashi.html

</VirtualHost>

After this save this file .

Then we make a log directory into DocumentRoot.

# mkdir /var/www/html/nuts.com/logs

# mkdir /var/www/html/nuts.com/history

# touch /var/www/html/nuts.com/logs/access_log

# touch var/www/html/nuts.com/history/webalizer.hist

# chmod 644 access_log

# chmod 644 webalizer.hist

How to configure it

1.Create a central directory for the webalizer configuration files

# mkdir /etc/webalizer

2.Create two webalizer configuration files,

#cp /usr/local/etc/webalizer.conf.sample etc/webalizer/a.example.conf

Modify LogFile, OutputDir and HostName of the webalizer config files.

vim /etc/webalizer/a.example.com.conf

and changes the content

LogFile /var/www/html/nuts.com/logs/access_log

OutputDir /var/www/usage

HostName praetorian-id.org # it depend on your web hostname

HistoryName /var/www/html/nuts.com/history/webalizer.hist

After this save this file.

4.To process all the virtual sites, run the following command:

# for i in /etc/webalizer/*.conf; do webalizer -c $i; done
