wwwstat-2.01-RP README Rob Pinciuc, robp@wincom.net October 15, 1998 This package includes 6 files in addition to the original wwwstat-2.01 package files: README-RP (this file) wwwstat.1-RP modified man page wwwstat.html-RP modified HTML'ized man page wwwstat.pl-RP modified wwwstat Perl program wwwstat.rc-RP modified configuration file example.html-RP example stats report These files, when used to replace the default wwwstat-2.01 files, will allow wwwstat to be used to generate "Referring URL" and "User Agent" statistics, in addition to the usual stats generated. In order for this to work, you must set your web server software to use a (in Apache lingo) "combined" log format. That is, the common logfile format (CLF) followed by two additional fields: HTTP_REFERER and HTTP_USER_AGENT, as reported by the client's web browser. This modified version will still work with regular CLF files that don't have the extra fields, and with mixed log files containing entries of each type. This has only been tested with Apache 1.3.2 log files, under the Solaris 2.5.1 operating system, with Perl version 5.004_04. However, it should work fine on any of the systems that the original wwwstat-2.01 works on, since there really is no new code, just modified original code pasted into the right places. == Installation == To use my modified version of wwwstat-2.01, simply copy the *-RP files over top of the original files. You may wish to make a backup copy of the standard wwwstat-2.01 files in case you wish to revert to the default version. Then follow steps 3+ in the default INSTALL file to complete the installation. == Bugs == You may report any bugs (in my modified code only!) to me via email at: robp@wincom.net However, I do not guarantee I will respond to your question, or fix the reported bug at any time.
