<br>awstats_updateall launches update process for all AWStats config files (except
<br>awstats.model.conf) found in a particular directory, so you can easily setup a
<br>cron/scheduler job. The scanned directory is by default /etc/awstats.
<br>
<br>Usage: awstats_updateall.pl now [options]
<br>
<br>Where options are:
<br> -awstatsprog=pathtoawstatspl
<br> -configdir=confdirtoscan

<br>awstats_buildstaticpages allows you to launch AWStats with -staticlinks option
<br>to build all possible pages allowed by AWStats -output option.
<br>
<br>Usage:
<br>awstats_buildstaticpages.pl (awstats_options) [awstatsbuildstaticpages_options]
<br>
<br> where awstats_options are any option known by AWStats
<br> -config=configvalue is value for -config parameter (REQUIRED)
<br> -update option used to update statistics before to generate pages
<br> -lang=LL to output a HTML report in language LL (en,de,es,fr,...)
<br> -month=MM to output a HTML report for an old month=MM
<br> -year=YYYY to output a HTML report for an old year=YYYY
<br>
<br> and awstatsbuildstaticpages_options can be
<br> -awstatsprog=pathtoawstatspl gives AWStats software (awstats.pl) path
<br> -dir=outputdir to set output directory for generated pages
<br> -builddate=%YY%MM%DD Used to add build date in built pages filenames
<br> -staticlinksext=xxx For pages with .xxx extension instead of .html
<br> -buildpdf[=pathtohtmldoc] Build a PDF file after building HTML pages.
<br> Output directory must contains icon directory

<br><a name="logresolvemerge"><H2 style="font: 18px arial,helvetica,sans-serif color: #606060"><u>logresolvemerge.pl</u></H2></a>
<br>logresolvemerge allows you to merge several log files into one output,
<br>sorted on date. It also makes a fast reverse DNS lookup to replace
<br>all IP addresses into host names in resulting log file.
<br>logresolvemerge comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY. It's a free software
<br>distributed with a GNU General Public License (See COPYING.txt file).
<br>logresolvemerge is part of AWStats but can be used alone as a log merger
<br>or resolver before using any other log analyzer.
<br>
<br>Usage:
<br> logresolvemerge.pl [options] file
<br> logresolvemerge.pl [options] file1 ... filen
<br> logresolvemerge.pl [options] *.*
<br>Options:
<br> -dnslookup make a reverse DNS lookup on IP adresses
<br> -dnscache=file make DNS lookup from cache file first before network lookup
<br> -showsteps print on stderr benchmark information every 8192 lines
<br> -addfilenum if used with several files, file number can be added in first
<br> field of output file.
<br>
<br>This runs logresolvemerge in command line to open one or several web
<br>server log files to merge them (sorted on date) and/or to make a reverse
<br>DNS lookup (if wanted). The result log file is sent on standard output.
<br>Note: logresolvemerge is not a 'sort' tool to sort one file. It's a
<br>software able to output sorted log records (with a reverse DNS lookup
<br>included or not) even if log records are dispatched in several files.
<br>Each of thoose files must be already independently sorted itself
<br>(but that is the case in all web server log files). So you can use it
<br>for load balanced log files or to process several old log files.
<br>
<br>Don't forget that the main goal of logresolvemerge is to send log records to
<br>a log analyzer in a sorted order without merging files on disk (NO NEED
<br>OF DISK SPACE AT ALL) and without loading files into memory (NO NEED
<br>OF MORE MEMORY). Choose of output records is done on the fly.
<br>
<br>So logresolvemerge is particularly useful when you want to output several
<br>and/or large log files in a fast process, with no use of disk or
<br>more memory and in a chronological order through a pipe (to be used by a log
<br>analyzer.
<br>
<br>Note: If input records are not 'exactly' sorted but 'nearly' sorted (this
<br>occurs with heavy servers), this is not a problem, the output will also
<br>be 'nearly' sorted but a few log analyzers (like AWStats) knowns how to deal
<br>with such logs.
<br>
<br>WARNING: If log files are old MAC text files (lines ended with CR char), you
<br>can't run this tool on Win or Unix platforms.
<br>
<br>WARNING: Because of important memory holes in ActiveState Perl version, use
<br>another Perl interpreter if you need to process large log files.

<br><a name="maillogconvert"><H2 style="font: 18px arial,helvetica,sans-serif color: #606060"><u>maillogconvert.pl</u></H2></a>
<br>maillogconvert is mail log preprocessor that convert a mail log file (from
<br>postfix, sendmail or qmail servers) into a human readable format.
<br>The output format is also ready to be used by a log analyzer, like AWStats.
<br>
<br>Usage:
<br> perl maillogconvert.pl [standard|vadmin] [year] < logfile > output
<br>
<br>The first parameter specifies what format the mail logfile is :
<br> standard - logfile is standard postfix,sendmail,qmail or mdaemon log format
<br> vadmin - logfile is qmail log format with vadmin multi-host support
<br>
<br>The second parameter specifies what year to timestamp logfile with, if current
<br>year is not the correct one (ie. 2002). Always use 4 digits. If not specified,
<br>current year is used.
<br>
<br>If no output is specified, it goes to the console (stdout).
<br>For example, the following sample from postfix mail log server:

<br><a name="urlaliasbuilder"><H2 style="font: 18px arial,helvetica,sans-serif color: #606060"><u>urlaliasbuilder.pl</u></H2></a>
<br>Urlaliasbuilder generates an 'urlalias' file from an input file.
<br>The input file must contain a list of URLs (It can be an AWStats history file).
<br>For each of thoose URLs, the script get the corresponding HTML page and catch the
<br>header information (title), then it writes an output file that contains one line
<br>for each URLs and several fields:
<br>- The first field is the URL,
<br>- The second is title caught from web page.
<br>This resulting file can be used by AWStats urlalias plugin.
<br>
<br>Usage: urlaliasbuilder.pl -site=www.myserver.com [options]
<br>
<br>The site parameter contains the web server to get the page from.
<br>Where options are:
<br> -urllistfile=Input urllist file
<br> If this file is an AWStats history file then urlaliasbuilder will use the
<br> SIDER section of this file as its input URL's list.
<br> -urlaliasfile=Output urlalias file to build
<br> -overwrite Overwrite output file if exists
<br> -secure Use https protocol
<br>
<br>Example: urlaliasbuilder.pl -site=www.someotherhost.com
