Instaling awstats

N

Guest
Hi. We are using plesk for webhosting, and I want to install another logfile analyzer to get advanced statistics.
Is there a problem with AWStats an Plesk 8 ?

Thanks.
 
there is no probelm with awstats.

i used it and the plugin for webmin for virtual hosts.

it works great.
 
Here is a wicked script I use for setting up awstats on a site:

USAGE:

./setup_awstats.sh <domain name> <ssl support 0/1>

Code: 
#!/bin/bash

if [ $# == 0 ]; then
  echo "USAGE: $0 <domain name> <ssl support>"
  exit
fi

domain=$1
ssl_support=$2

if [ -z "$ssl_support" ]; then
  ssl_support=0
fi

# make awstats directory
mkdir -p /var/www/vhosts/$domain/statistics/awstats/
chown apache:apache /var/www/vhosts/$domain/statistics/awstats/

# remove previously added awstats to avoid dupe
if [ -e /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost.conf ]; then
        cat /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost.conf |grep -v "Include /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/awstats.conf" > /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost.conf.tmp
        mv /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost.conf.tmp /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost.conf
fi

# remove previously added awstats to avoid dupe
if [ -e /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost_ssl.conf ]; then
        cat /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost_ssl.conf |grep -v "Include /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/awstats.conf" > /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost_ssl.conf.tmp
        mv /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost_ssl.conf.tmp /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost_ssl.conf
fi

# add awstats to SSL domain if SSL was specified
if [ "$ssl_support" -eq 1 ] ; then
cat >> /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost_ssl.conf <<EOF
Include /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/awstats.conf
EOF
fi

# add awstats to non-SSL domain if SSL is disabled
if [ ! "$ssl_support" -eq 1 ]; then
cat >> /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/vhost.conf <<EOF
Include /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf/awstats.conf

# make sure vhost.conf or vhost_ssl.conf is included by httpd.include

Yes but how can we install it 'serverwide' for all the existing virtual hosts at one time as well as it will automatically install on new domains also?

There was a script that automaically did all of this for Ensim ... is there one for Plesk?

I thought Plesk had awstats in their control panel already ... are they NUTZZZZZZ or what ... there is NO COMPARISON with 'webalizer' ...

TIA

So tylerc,
We can run your script from the root commandline and simply change the <domain name> to <domainTOuse.com>
for multiple domains each time is that correct?

TIA

Most definitely. We looked at Plesk for our FreeBSD dedicateds but when we realized it didn't have AWStats, we reloaded. I was looking at a VPS and Plesk 8, so I stopped by to see if meets the requirements of an average domain user. Looks like I'll have to stop back in a couple years.

Can you tell us how to install it GLOBALLY for all 90 domains at once?

TIA,
aaabyss

I am NOT the only one that thinks so.

Anyone home???

Hey Guys,
I know it sucks to not have your AWSTATS! We provide 4PSA software that uses awstats, 4PSA Advanced Stats... I'm really not sure as to why SWSOFT hasn't included awstats as default over webalizer, ugh!

Anyway, Advanced stats does support BSD and all other OS's support by plesk.

I hope this helps,

Trouble with 4PSA products is they like to make sure there name is clearly showing, so if you donlt like that in a 'rebrandable' control panel then it might nor be for you. I think they want to have their cake and eat it, it looks like this :

Note the even get their web URL in the notice, bit of a liberty if u ask me !!!
 
Ive been trying to use the script but with no success.
I have plesk on debian.

I'm a total beginer to server admin & linux.

Here's what I've done so far...

used notepad to put the script into a file called setup_awstats.sh

placed it in the vhosts directory using winscp

used putty with the command...
chmod 755 setup_awstats.sh ./setup_awstats.sh mydomainname.co.uk 0


and I get this error -
chmod: cannot access `0': No such file or directory

Can anyone give me a dunce step by step guide or help me to where I'm going wrong.

many thanks
