I can't for the life of me figure out how to use it. I've edited the analog.cfg but when I run it from the command line, it seems to be completely ignoring anything that's in there. Almost as if it's not reading the config file. Are there command line options or something that I'm missing? I've looked in the FAQ and in the documentation.. maybe I'm just not seeing it, and if so I apologize, but I definately need some help.

I've also made changes to the analog.cfg that is in the directory where I installed analog (/usr/local/analog).. Neither of them seem to have any effect. Analog usually reads the analog.cfg file located in the directory where analog resides. This can be changed in the anlghead.h file before you compile it. If you are not sure use analog -settings to have it tell you what files it is reading. At a guess, the RedHat version might put the config file in /etc instead of in the analog dir. But as Jeremy says, you can find out with -settings. You can use a different config file with +gmy.cfg (and -G if you want to ignore the default config file). -- Stephen Turner, Cambridge, UKhttp://homepage.ntlworld.com/adelie/stephen/ Reserve your 2 hour delivery time, which means you'll see the same special offers as you would instore - Sainsbury's internet shopping instructions + | This is the analog-help mailing list.

[analog-help] Re: Analog Help Digest V1 #444
Gentlemen: On October 31, you wrote: By the way, there is a useful article which has just appeared at http://www.klarisma.dk/articles/aindex.asp about adding fake parameters to requests in order to pass information to yourself. For example, the author recommends adding parameters to all href's so that you can quickly see which link on a page was clicked. If the page is a static page, the server will ignore the parameters, but they will still get written to the logfile. I chose to differ with the efficiency of Mr. Larsen's paper. If one were to have a log with but a few entries, it is reasonable to assume that his philosophy might be effective. However, when a log files contains millions of lines, the necessity of special handling becomes self-evident. Does this information not already exist in a log file? I have two fields in my log file, the requested page and the referring page. If I understand Mr. Larsen correctly, he's adding additional information to the referring field to tell me something that is already there. For example, he suggests that parameters be added to a link to indicate where the link came from. I already get this information. I have only one link on a page to another page. It might make some difference if I were to have links in five places on the same page and you want to track which link is the most effective. However, this skewes the accuracy of the study, since repetition is the dominant factor at work here, not the effectiveness of the link. By the vary nature of a web-site, it is organized in much the same way as a corner variety store is organized. The milk is always put in a location the farthest from the door to force people to go by all of the less-needed impulse-buy items. If you know that people are coming to your site to access a specific resource, you put into place distractions that will sell your site or your products while people naviate their way to the milk. My site is organized in a hierarchy from the top down to as much as 15 levels deep. It is a simple matter for me to determine where a page came from by the referrer field. I might have 10 different places on a page where that link could have come from but then, my site is a major exception to the norm. My objective is not repetition but relevance. My site is organized in the same way that a dictionary or encyclopedia is organized, with a predictable hierarchy. Entertainment sites or marketing sites will have a different hierarchy where the objective is to enhance the experience of the visitor to entice them to stay longer. My site is the opposite, I want readers to get the information they want, quickly and comfortably and be able to move around the site to other information and references quickly. I can't help thinking that I'm missing something in Mr. Larsen's proposal. However, that he has presented his position is laudable. I present this, not in criticism of his position but to extract that which I might have mis-understood or not read. I look forward to comments that might clarify this.

[analog-help] successful request for pages not included
Our scripts employing analog on IIS web sites have not worked well on their first run on IIS 5.0 as opposed to IIS 4.0. Is there anything one needs to change? Problems include: the general summary does not include 'successful requests for pages'. The daily and hourly summaries show number of requests, but the pages column shows only zeroes. The request report entries show requests for get?/index.html and the like, rather than /index.html. I would be pleased if anyone could tell me why these things are so. One thing that was different in this run was that a previous run had been aborted and there was a dns lockfile, so analog hacked off to DNS Lookup.

Thankfully Stephen explained that i could do that by changing the FROM and TO fields My question now will be 1.) Is there any way to get logs for a particular day on the fly . say by choosing a particular day on the report itself.?? i.e not going to analog.cfg to change dates ?? Also for the faliure report or say for the report request. is there any way in which i could customize the failure report so that i could get the username / ip address / access time . along with file name , number of requests.. which i already get in the report ? 2.) On a different note, i am not sure if this is possible but has anybody setup analog to provide graphs to availability and uptime for a server. Sibi John.

I have some qmail log files that I want to do a quick byte count on using analog, but can't seem to get it figured out. I have grepped the files and gotten just the lines with byte counts and converted the times to something readable. Here is a sample line: 2002-09-20 08:17:23.276297500 info msg 114942: bytes 7109 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] qp 17662 uid 151 I have tried a few different LOGFORMATs with no success. The closest that I have gotten is with: LOGFORMAT (%Y-%m-%d %h:%n:%j.%j info msg %j: bytes %b from %j qp %j uid %c) and it returns with: F: Ignoring logfile [EMAIL PROTECTED], which contains no items being analysed However, all the lines in the log file have the same format as the one listed above. I would think that it would be a good match. I have managed to get Analog working with lots of other services and log types (Windows Media, Real Media, etc.), but this one I just can't figure out. Also, would it be appropriate to post those log formats for Windows Media and the like to this list just for future reference to anyone looking through archives?

[analog-help] analog not reading all the log files
I am running analog 5.23 on a redhat 7.2 apache server. Analog runs perfectly analyzing all logs from apaches and imported logs from an IIS server when running as a cron job, or via command line. I recently implemented the anlgform interface, and the problem I am having is when specifying a date range of say: FROM: 020601 TO: 020630 analog REPORT.html returns 6/13/02 to 6/30/02. Why is analog skipping log files from the 1st to the 12th via a web interface? They do exist, No matter what month I choose it seems to stop at the 13th, also Is there a parameter to set DEBUG to write to a file, instead of the screen. Thanks, mark __ Do you Yahoo!?

If I understand Mr. Larsen correctly, he's adding additional information to the referring field to tell me something that is already there. For example, he suggests that parameters be added to a link to indicate where the link came from. I already get this information. I have only one link on a page to another page. It might make some difference if I were to have links in five places on the same page and you want to track which link is the most effective. I think he's thinking primarily of the case where you have more than one link on a page, and you want to distinguish between them. But I notice that he does use it on his site more widely than that. The other big advantage is that the referrer becomes part of the filename. That means that you don't have to try and cross-reference files and referrers -- you get both in the filename (cf http://www.analog.cx/docs/faq.html#faq128). -- Stephen Turner, Cambridge, UKhttp://homepage.ntlworld.com/adelie/stephen/ Reserve your 2 hour delivery time, which means you'll see the same special offers as you would instore - Sainsbury's internet shopping instructions + | This is the analog-help mailing list.

Re: [analog-help] successful request for pages not included
Bell, Leslie ([EMAIL PROTECTED]; Friday, November 01, 2002 8:47 AM): One thing that was different in this run was that a previous run had been aborted and there was a dns lockfile, so analog hacked off to DNS Lookup. If you know that Analog was aborted, you can remove this file yourself. It's just there to keep two copies of Analog running at the same time from trying to both write to the cache file. -- Jeremy Wadsack Wadsack-Allen Digital Group + | This is the analog-help mailing list.

Re: [analog-help] Help a newbie again !!
Sibi John ([EMAIL PROTECTED]; Friday, November 01, 2002 9:05 AM): 1.) Is there any way to get logs for a particular day on the fly . say by choosing a particular day on the report itself.?? i.e not going to analog.cfg to change dates ?? You can use -F/-T from the command line. These are equivalent to FROM and TO in a config file. Also for the faliure report or say for the report request. is there any way in which i could customize the failure report so that i could get the username / ip address / access time . along with file name , number of requests.. which i already get in the report ? As Aengus just said: If a file has been requested 1,000 times do you want 1,000 IP addresses listed against it? http://www.analog.cx/docs/faq.html#faq128 You can always generate a full report for a single file by using FILEINCLUDE filename. The Host Report in this case will just list the Hosts that requested that file. But you can only report on a single file at a time. 2.) On a different note, i am not sure if this is possible but has anybody setup analog to provide graphs to availability and uptime for a server. The web server log files do not really provide this information. You could look at all the requests and, using some heuristic, figure out when there have been no requests for a long period of time (for some definition of long). But that's just an estimate. And web/browser caches and such could affect this. If you really want availability and uptime, use a server monitoring solution like the one included in PureSecure, http://www.demarc.com/. -- Jeremy Wadsack Wadsack-Allen Digital Group + | This is the analog-help mailing list.

[analog-help] Log formats for several log types
As promised, here are the log formats for several different server services that I have successfully created with good results. I can make no garauntee on any of these, but I can say that they have worked for me. Prior to discovering analog, I had my own Perl/PHP scripts calculating log files, but Analog is like 10 billion times faster and has much better output. Please feel free to offer any corrections or improvements. And thank you to everyone who has helped make Analog a great piece of software!

Re: [analog-help] Help a newbie again !!
Again, let me point you to PureSecure, http://www.demarc.com/. It does intrusion detection, system monitoring, etc. Analog is also useful for that, but not so much as a monitoring tool. If you do find something suspicious, you can use Analog to drill through the logs, isolating hosts (HOSTINCLUDE), periods (FROM/TO) and files (FILEINCLUDE) until you get the reports you need. This is a multi-step process. Of course you can get basic details from Analog: a large amount of traffic in a short time in the Hourly, Quarter-Hourly or Five-Minute reports; a host that is more active than others; repeated failed attempts to access secured areas of your site; etc. -- Jeremy Wadsack Wadsack-Allen Digital Group Sibi John ([EMAIL PROTECTED]; Friday, November 01, 2002 11:51 AM): I totally understand your point. But the main reason i want to do this is say if i needed to see if there were any hacker intrusion attempts on my site today, I would like see who was making what kind of requests at what time, and not just on a particular file, any requests to my website.. is something like that possible in analog.

Re: [analog-help] analog not reading all the log files
I got it working by letting analog.cfg handle the log locations and logformat, instead of passing them from the form.

I know... but I am not very good with scripts. I use a mac and I am working with logs in the hundreds of megas so I can not use excel to open them.

Re: [analog-help] Counting hits from click-through campaign
Just thought I'd add that Norton's Internet Security or Personal Firewall blocks referrer as default. Marc. From: James Riemermann [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [analog-help] Counting hits from click-through campaign Date: Wed, 30 Oct 2002 19:14:34 -0600 As I have had similar, unexplainable problems with certain banner ad buys, I wonder if some of the ad-tracking services might be buggy in some way--say, passing a bad destination URL to the browser, and counting that as a click-through because, indeed, they did click through to something--but no page on our site! I can't confirm this, but I suspect it happens, maybe more often than advertisers would admit or even know. Using the Internal Search report and a specific target URL offers a much better basis for evaluating the success of ad buys or other external links into your site. Good luck! james [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/30 3:44p the problem is either 1) the site refers from numerous, multiple URLs that may differ from their main commercial URLs; and 2) the referrals may come from an ad-server address rather than the actual commercial site. I realized that, but after I excluded everything I knew for certain would not be them, the total referrers left (from all types of misc places) was less than the click-throughs they reported. So, if they are telling the truth - no referrer was recorded. URLs ending with source=advertisername. Then the Internal Search report organizes all such click-through counts in one place.

Please help me out for the solution if i can make analog config files read from tar.gz files if yes than what settings i will have to change in cfg files of the virtual domains. I hope i get help on this so that i can save my disk space :) Yes, but you have to give an UNCOMPRESS command to tell analog how to read them. If you're using GNU tar, I think this should do: UNCOMPRESS *.tar.gz tar zxOf By the way, you may find it easier just to gzip each file separately, not put them all in one big tar.
