My method may be a titch simplistic, but I'm getting the results I want anyway so i
don't care. *g*
I set up my analog.cfg the way I wanted... output file of index.html in the /webstats
directory, in my case, as well as telling analog to parse /var/log/httpd/access_lo*
for its data.
I made two small edits to existing RedHat-installed files. In cron.daily's logrotate
script I inserted a command to run analog before the actual log rotation occurs. (I
did this mainly to completely avoid any conceivable cross-purposes on the part of
analog and the log rotation scheme.) And in the logrotate.conf file I upped the weeks
to 12 so I can have three months' worth of data in my report.
As RedHat is already checking log rotation daily, and comes default (in 6.2 anyway)
setup to keep 4 weeks of rolled-over logs, there's not much to it. YMMV, of course,
and your goals may not be the same as mine.
