mkdir www/log
cp -r /usr/share/analog-5.31/images www/log/Edit /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/etc/analog.cfg and change the variable in HOSTNAME "[my organisation]" to reflect your website title. If you don't want the traffic log to be publicly visible, change OUTFILE /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/www/log/traffic.html to use a private directory.
Run it.
[$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME $OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME]$ /usr/share/analog-5.31/analog -G -g/var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/etc/analog.cfg /usr/share/analog-5.31/analog: analog version 5.31/Unix /usr/share/analog-5.31/analog: Warning F: Failed to open DNS input file /home/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/dnscache: ignoring it (For help on all errors and warnings, see docs/errors.html) /usr/share/analog-5.31/analog: Warning R: Turning off empty Search Word Report [$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME $OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME]$
Verify that it works by browing to http://yourserver.test:8000/log/traffic.html
Automate this by creating a file in /etc/cron.daily.
[$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME $OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME]$ exit logout [root root]# emacs /etc/cron.daily/analog
Put this into the file:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/share/analog-5.31/analog -G -g/var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/etc/analog.cfg[root root]# chmod 755 /etc/cron.daily/analog
Test it by running the script.
[root root]# sh /etc/cron.daily/analog
