Install and configure webalizer on Ubuntu
Posted on: January 16, 2007
- install webalizer
sudo apt-get install webalizer
If webalizer is not found, you have to add sources in /etc/apt/sources.list: can comment the universe sources.
- Enable the apache2 hostname resolution: go into /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Change
HostnameLookups Off
into
HostnameLookups On
- By default webalizer is not well configured: it does not check in the good log. In /etc/webalizer.conf: Change
LogFile /var/log/apache/access.log.1
to
LogFile /var/log/apache2/access.log
- Test webalizer:
sudo webalizer
If you get a warning like warning: Truncating …
It is because you did not put the hostnameLookup. If afterward, you get this message, it can be because you are attacked by a virus… - Run webalizer as a cronjob. This has to be run as root: Edit the root cronjobs by running the command:
sudo crontab -e
and add the line:
0 * * * * webalizer
With that line, every hour webalizer is run

Hi Bobby, I tried to edit apache2.conf , it works by using TEXT editor BUT i can’t save it because of this message…
Could not save the file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf.
You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again.
