NAME
webalizer - A web server log file analysis tool.
SYNOPSIS
webalizer [ option ... ] [ log-file ]
webazolver [ option ... ] [ log-file ]
DESCRIPTION
The Webalizer is a web server log file analysis program which produces
usage statistics in HTML format for viewing with a browser. The
results are presented in both columnar and graphical format, which
facilitates interpretation. Yearly, monthly, daily and hourly usage
statistics are presented, along with the ability to display usage by
site, URL, referrer, user agent (browser), username, search strings,
entry/exit pages, and country (some information may not be available
if not present in the log file being processed).
The Webalizer supports CLF (common log format) log files, as well as
Combined log formats as defined by NCSA and others, and variations of
these which it attempts to handle intelligently. In addition, the
Webalizer supports xferlog formatted (FTP) log files, squid proxy logs
and W3C extended format logs. Logs may also be compressed, via gzip
(.gz) or, if enabled at compile time, bzip2 (.bz2). If a compressed
log file is detected, it will be automatically uncompressed while it is
read. Compressed logs must have the standard gzip extension of .gz or
bzip2 extension of .bz2.
webazolver is normally just a symbolic link to the Webalizer. When run
as webazolver, only DNS file creation/updates are performed, and the
program will exit once complete. All normal options and configuration
directives are available, however many will not be used. In addition,
a DNS cache file must be specified. If the number of DNS children pro-
cesses to use are not specified, the webazolver will default to 5.
This documentation applies to The Webalizer Version 2.23
RUNNING THE WEBALIZER
The Webalizer was designed to be run from a Unix command line prompt or
as a crond(8) job. Once executed, the general flow of the program is:
o A default configuration file is scanned for. A file named
webalizer.conf is searched for in the current directory, and if
found, and is owned by the invoking user, then its configura-
tion data is parsed. If the file is not present in the current
directory, the file /etc/webalizer.conf is searched for and,
if found, is used instead.
o Any command line arguments given to the program are parsed.
This may include the specification of a configuration file,
which is processed at the time it is encountered.
o If a log file was specified, it is opened and made ready for
processing. If no log file was given, STDIN is used for input.
If the log filename '-' is specified, STDIN will be forced.
o If an output directory was specified, the program does a
chdir(2) to that directory in preparation for generating out-
put. If no output directory was given, the current directory
is used.
o If a non-zero number of DNS Children processes were specified,
they will be started, and the specified log file will be pro-
cessed, creating or updating the specified DNS cache file.
o If no hostname was given, the program attempts to get the host-
name using a uname(2) system call. If that fails, localhost is
used.
o A history file is searched for in the current directory (output
directory) and read if found. This file keeps totals for pre-
vious months, which is used in the main index.html HTML docu-
ment. Note: The file location can now be specified with the
HistoryName configuration option.
o If incremental processing was specified, a data file is
searched for and loaded if found, containing the 'internal
state' data of the program at the end of a previous run. Note:
The file location can now be specified with the IncrementalName
configuration option.
o Main processing begins on the log file. If the log spans mul-
tiple months, a separate HTML document is created for each
month.
o After main processing, the main index.html page is created,
which has totals by month and links to each months HTML docu-
ment.
o A new history file is saved to disk, which includes totals gen-
erated by The Webalizer during the current run.
o If incremental processing was specified, a data file is written
that contains the 'internal state' data at the end of this run.
INCREMENTAL PROCESSING
The Webalizer supports incremental run capability. Simply put, this
allows processing large log files by breaking them up into smaller
pieces, and processing these pieces instead. What this means in real
terms is that you can now rotate your log files as often as you want,
and still be able to produce monthly usage statistics without the loss
of any detail. Basically, The Webalizer saves and restores all inter-
nal data in a file named webalizer.current. This allows the program to
'start where it left off' so to speak, and allows the preservation of
detail from one run to the next. The data file is placed in the cur-
rent output directory, and is a plain ASCII text file that can be
viewed with any standard text editor. It's location and name may be
changed using the IncrementalName configuration keyword.
Some special precautions need to be taken when using the incremental
run capability of The Webalizer. Configuration options should not be
changed between runs, as that could cause corruption of the internal
data stored. For example, changing the MangleAgents level will cause
different representations of user agents to be stored, producing
invalid results in the user agents section of the report. If you need
to change configuration options, do it at the end of the month after
normal processing of the previous month and before processing the cur-
rent month. You may also want to delete the webalizer.current file as
well.
The Webalizer also attempts to prevent data duplication by keeping
track of the timestamp of the last record processed. This timestamp is
then compared to current records being processed, and any records that
were logged previous to that timestamp are ignored. This, in theory,
should allow you to re-process logs that have already been processed,
or process logs that contain a mix of processed/not yet processed
records, and not produce duplication of statistics. The only time this
may break is if you have duplicate timestamps in two separate log
files... any records in the second log file that do have the same time-
stamp as the last record in the previous log file processed, will be
discarded as if they had already been processed. There are lots of
ways to prevent this however, for example, stopping the web server
before rotating logs will prevent this situation. This setup also
necessitates that you always process logs in chronological order, oth-
erwise data loss will occur as a result of the timestamp compare.
REVERSE DNS LOOKUPS
The Webalizer fully supports IPv4 and IPv6 DNS lookups, and maintains a
cache of those lookups to reduce processing the same addresses in sub-
sequent runs. The cache file can be created at run-time, or may be
created before running the webalizer using either the stand alone
'webazolver' program, or The Webalizer (DNS) Cache file manager program
'wcmgr'. In order to perform reverse lookups, a DNSCache file must be
specified, either on the command line or in a configuration file. In
order to create/update the cache file at run-time, the number of
DNSChildren must also be specified, and can be anything between 1 and
100. This specifies the number of child processes to be forked, each
of which will perform network DNS queries in order to lookup up the
addresses and update the cache. Cached entries that are older than a
specified TTL (time to live) will be expired, and if encountered again
in a log, will be looked up at that time in order to 'freshen' them
(verify the name is still the same and update its timestamp). The
default TTL is 7 days, however may be set to anything between 1 and 100
days. Using the 'wcmgr' program, entries may also be marked as 'perma-
nent', in which case they will persist (with an infinite TTL) in the
cache until manually removed. See the file DNS.README for additional
information and examples.
GEOLOCATION LOOKUPS
The Webalizer has the ability to perform geolocation lookups on IP
addresses using either it's own internal GeoDB database, or optionally
the GeoIP database from MaxMind, Inc. (www.maxmind.com). If used,
unresolved addresses will be searched for in the database and its coun-
try of origin will be returned if found. This actually produces more
accurate Country information than DNS lookups, since the DNS address
space has additional gcTLDs that do not necessarily map to a specific
country (such as .net and .com). It is possible to use both DNS
lookups and geolocation lookups at the same time, which will cause any
addresses that could not be resolved using DNS lookups to then be
looked up in the database, greatly reducing the number of Unknown/Unre-
solved entries in the generated reports. The native GeoDB geolocation
database provided by The Webalizer fully supports both IPv4 and IPv6
lookups, is updated regularly and is the preferred geolocation method
for use with The Webalizer. The most current version of the database
can be obtained from our ftp site (ftp://ftp.mrunix.net/).
COMMAND LINE OPTIONS
The Webalizer supports many different configuration options that will
alter the way the program behaves and generates output. Most of these
can be specified on the command line, while some can only be specified
in a configuration file. The command line options are listed below,
with references to the corresponding configuration file keywords.
General Options
-h Display all available command line options and exit program.
-v Be verbose. Will cause the program to output informational and
Debug messages at run-time.
-V Display the program version and exit. Additional program spe-
cific information will be displayed if verbose mode is also
used (e.g. '-vV'), which can be useful when submitting bug
reports.
-d Debug. Display debugging information for errors and warnings.
-i IgnoreHist. Ignore history. USE WITH CAUTION. This will cause
The Webalizer to ignore any previous monthly history file only.
Incremental data (if present) is still processed.
-b IgnoreState. Ignore incremental data file. USE WITH CAUTION.
This will cause The Webalizer to ignore any existing incremen-
tal data file. By ignoring the incremental data file, all pre-
vious processing for the current month will be lost and those
logs must be re-processed.
-p Incremental. Preserve internal data between runs.
-q Quiet. Suppress informational messages. Does not suppress
warnings or errors.
-Q ReallyQuiet. Suppress all messages including warnings and
errors.
-T TimeMe. Force display of timing information at end of process-
ing.

sis, by treating as if they were the same date/time as the last
good record. Normally, out of sequence log records are simply
ignored.

sion.
1 Browser name, version and machine type if possible.
0 All information (left unchanged).
-g num GroupDomains. Automatically group sites by domain. The group-
ing level specified by num can be thought of as 'the number of
dots' to display in the grouping. The default value of 0 dis-
ables any domain grouping.
-D name DNSCache. Use the DNS cache file name.
-N num DNSChildren. Use num DNS children processes to perform DNS
lookups, either creating or updating the DNS cache file. Spec-
ify zero (0) to disable cache file creation/updates. If given,
a DNS cache filename must be specified.

CONFIGURATION FILES
Configuration files are standard ASCII(7) text files that may be cre-
ated or edited using any standard editor. Blank lines and lines that
begin with a pound sign ('#') are ignored. Any other lines are consid-
ered to be configuration lines, and have the form "Keyword Value",
where the 'Keyword' is one of the currently available configuration
keywords defined below, and 'Value' is the value to assign to that par-
ticular option. Any text found after the keyword up to the end of the
line is considered the keyword's value, so you should not include any-
thing after the actual value on the line that is not actually part of
the value being assigned. The file sample.conf provided with the dis-
tribution contains lots of useful documentation and examples as well.
General Configuration Keywords

Specify the number of months to display in the main index
(yearly summary) graph. Default is 12 months. Can be set to
anything between 12 and 72 months (1 to 6 years).
VisitTimeout num
Specifies the visit timeout value. Default is 1800 seconds (30
minutes). A visit is determined by looking at the difference
in time between the current and last request from a specific
site. If the difference is greater or equal to the timeout
value, the request is counted as a new visit. Specified in
seconds.
IndexAlias name
Use name as an additional alias for index.*.
DefaultIndex ( yes | no )
Enables or disables the use of 'index.' as a default index name
to be stripped from the end of URLs. This does not effect any
index names that may be defined with the IndexAlias option.
MangleAgents num
Mangle user agent names based on mangle level num. See the -M
command line switch for mangle levels and their meaning. The
default is 0, which doesn't mangle user agents at all.

of URLs. Values may be 'yes' or 'no', with the default being
'yes'.
TrimSquidURL num
Allows squid log URLs to be reduced in granularity by truncat-
ing them after num slashes ('/') after the http:// prefix. A
setting of one (1) will cause all URLs to be summarized by
domain only. The default value is zero (0), which will disable
any URL modifications and leave them exactly as found in the
log file.
SearchEngine name variable
Allows the specification of search engines and their query
strings. The name is the name to match against the referrer
string for a given search engine. The variable is the cgi
variable that the search engine uses for queries. See the sam-
ple.conf file for example usage with common search engines.
SearchCaseI ( yes | no )
Determines if search strings should be treated case insensitive
or not. The default is 'yes', which lowercases all search
strings (treat as case insensitive).
Incremental ( yes | no )

Filename to use for incremental data. Relative to output
directory unless an absolute name is given (ie: starts with
'/'). Defaults to 'webalizer.current' in the standard output
directory.
DNSCache name
Filename to use for the DNS cache. Relative to output direc-
tory unless an absolute name is given (ie: starts with '/').
DNSChildren num
Number of children DNS processes to run in order to cre-
ate/update the DNS cache file. Specify zero (0) to disable.

DNS cache entry time to live (TTL) in days. Default is 7 days.
May be any value between 1 and 100.
GeoDB ( yes | no )
Allows native GeoDB geolocation services to be enabled or dis-
abled. Default value is 'no'.
GeoDBDatabase name
Allows the use of an alternate GeoDB database name. If not
specified, the default database will be used.
GeoIP ( yes | no )
Allows GeoIP (by MaxMind Inc.) geolocation services to be
enabled or disabled. Default is 'no'. If native GeoDB geolo-
cation services are also enabled, then this option will have no
effect (and the native GeoDB services will be used).
