[Zope] statistics and click analysis for a plone site

2008-06-02 Thread robert rottermann

Hi there,
for a Client using a plone2 intranet (with no access from the outside 
world) I installed awstat to track the usage of the intranet.

now I wonder how meningfull such statisics are.

The intranet usage is roughly as follows:
- user logs into the intranet authenticating against a 
Ldap/MSActiveDirectory

- she stays in the intranet all day, probably never logs out
- collects data as needed

The awstats setup is very basic. I just installed it and adopted the 
config files such that it finds the apache log files.
I did a second setup for the Z2.log (to get at the old data, as we do 
not rotate the Z2.log).


Looking at the awstats statistics I do not find them of overwhelming 
informative.
Now, I now awstats is not a click analysis tool. but maybe somebody has 
done some more analysis into how to provide useful statistics on the 
usage of an intranet.

Any pointers would be welcome.

thanks
robert

Since the information stored within the standard logs is limited, all tools 
can only perform an analysis on top of the available information. So the 
tools basically provide the same functionality and differ only in the way 
they present the results to the outside world.

that's a call that each individual has to make. if you're
uncomfortable with google knowing your intranets title tags and urls
then don't. the guy is looking for potential solutions not explantions
of why he can't or shoulndt do something.

this is exactly why google analytics is no option (unfortunately).

Then look at the (incomplete) list of available tools:

and check their feature list.

I guess you have something like apache in front of the zope,
if so you can make a custom log format (with relevant fields,
separated uniform, e.g. tabs) and spool them in a database,
for example I used some tables in postgres: uris (uri_id,'/foo/bar')
queries (query_id,'?foo=bar')   methods (method_id, 'GET'),
hostnames (host_id,'www.foo.de')
access (timestamp,host_id,bytes,time,method_id,uri_id,query_id )

with an insert-script and then you can easily run reports against
those structured data. You can also include various request parameters
I did not show above (like session cookie, auth_user, ...)

Tino
