Yes, it is possible to set this up, but it needs some work.

- You need to create separate log files for the subdomain by placing the following inside the subdomains vhost.conf:

CustomLog /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/statistics/logs/<subdomain>_access_log plesklog
ErrorLog /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/statistics/logs/<subdomain>_error_log

- Next create a directory for the statistics:

mkdir /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/subdomains/<subdomain>/webstat

- Add an alias to your subdomains vhost.conf file so you can call the statistics even though they are not in yout httpdocs directory:

Alias /webstat /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/subdomains/<subdomain>/webstat

The only thing missing now is logrotation for the new logs (maybe thats done by standard logrotation of that domain - you should check this) and the webalizer call which can be placed in a shell script in cron.daily:

#!/bin/sh
webalizer -p -q -c /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/conf/webalizer.conf -o /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/subdomains/<subdomain>/webstat

must i do someting else.. that this will start to work? now on my domain i get Access forbidden!

how can i check if this is working?

I guess you get Access forbidden when trying to access webstat directory, right?

Right now there are no logs there and the logs were never processed with webalizer - therefore the directory is empty.

- When you access the subdomain - is it logged in the new log files?

- When you run the command

webalizer -p -q -c /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/conf/webalizer.conf -o /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/subdomains/<subdomain>/webstat /var/www/vhosts/<domain>/statistics/logs/<subdomain>_access_log

does it create the files in the subdomain webstat directory?

BTW: Please correct the script line in the file for cron.daily with the above one - I missed the logfile in my first answer

I guess you mean good, not god

Dealing with this kind of stuff is my daily work - and I still like it

GOD and GOOD!

one question more... in /etc/cron.daily/webalizer i have this script:

#!/bin/sh
# /etc/cron.daily/webalizer: webalizer daily maintenance script
# Written by Remco van de Meent <[email protected]>

WEBALIZER_BIN=/usr/bin/webalizer
WEBALIZER_CONF=/etc/webalizer.conf

# See if the webalizer binary and config file exists
# if not, exit without warning to prevent daily mails
[ -f ${WEBALIZER_BIN} ] || exit 0
[ -f ${WEBALIZER_CONF} ] || exit 0

# Figure out non-rotated logfile
nonrotatedlog=`egrep '^LogFile' $WEBALIZER_CONF | \
sed -e 's/[[:space:]]\+/ /' | \
cut -d ' ' -f2 | \
sed -e 's/\.[[:digit:]][\.gz]*$//'`

# Can we read it?
[ -r "${nonrotatedlog}" ] || exit 0

# Check for empty logfile
logsz=`echo ${nonrotatedlog} | \
sed -e 's/[[:space:]]\+/ /' | \
cut -d ' ' -f2 | \
xargs ls -l | \
sed -e 's/[[:space:]]\+/ /g' | \
cut -d ' ' -f5`
[ $logsz -gt 0 ] || exit 0

# Run webalizer quietly
${WEBALIZER_BIN} -c ${WEBALIZER_CONF} -q
${WEBALIZER_BIN} -c ${WEBALIZER_CONF} -q ${nonrotatedlog}

# Exit with webalizer's exit code
exit $?

do i add thoes lines in here or? webalizer -p -q -c /var/www/vhosts... line
