Hello there,
Since my website's host does not provide regular Apache access logs, I
wrote a simple PHP script to log requests for my INDEX.PHP.
After not-so-successfully trying to analyze this log with using Excel
(actually, it was OOo Calc), a friend recommended to try Analog.
However, after some experimenting, I think my log might just be too
simple for Analog:
My script logs TIMESTAMP, IP and USER AGENT. (Additionally, USER AGENT
is broken down into BROWSER TYPE, BROWSER VERSION and BROWSER PARENT -
though those are probably irrelevant.).
So I used the following configuration:
# log format (tab-delimited):
# Timestamp (ISO 8601) | IP | User Agent | Browser Type [junk] |
# Browser Version [junk] | Browser Parent [junk]
LOGFORMAT "%Y-%m-%d %h:%n\t%s\t%B\t%j\t%j\t%j"
# log file
LOGFILE "data\visitors.log"
# output file
OUTFILE "data\visitorsReport.html"
However, the resulting report contains only a single truly meaningful
section (Operating System Report). The rest is either confusing
(Organisation Report based on IP blocks) or missing.
What I'm really after is an overview of Unique Visitors Per Day and
Browser Statistics (preferably listing major browsers and grouping the
remaining requests into categories - e.g. "Search Engines", "Unknown").
Unfortunately, I have no clue how to fix this - or whether Analog is
even the right tool for the job.
So I'd greatly appreciate some input!
Thanks,
Frederik
