-----> Running OS detected: Linux, BSD or Unix
Warning: AWStats standard directory on Linux OS is '/usr/local/awstats'.
If you want to use standard directory, you should first move all content
of AWStats distribution from current directory:
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/awstats-7.4
to standard directory:
/usr/local/awstats
And then, run configure.pl from this location.
Do you want to continue setup from this NON standard directory [yN] ? y

Do you want me to setup Apache to write 'combined' log files [y/N] ? --> N
(No, because we use custom varnish+Apache2+CloudFlare installed, so keep using varnishcombined as log format)
see this posting about varnish+cloudflare+apache2 before


-----> Update model config file '/usr/local/apache/htdocs/awstats-7.4/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.model.conf'
  File awstats.model.conf updated.

-----> Need to create a new config file ?
Do you want me to build a new AWStats config/profile
file (required if first install) [y/N] ? y

-----> Define config file name to create
What is the name of your web site or profile analysis ?

Starting httpd:                                            [  OK  ]

-----> Add update process inside a scheduler
Sorry, configure.pl does not support automatic add to cron yet.
You can do it manually by adding the following command to your cron:
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/awstats-7.4/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -update -config=yourdomainname.com
Or if you have several config files and prefer having only one command:
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/awstats-7.4/tools/awstats_updateall.pl now
Press ENTER to continue...

A SIMPLE config file has been created: /etc/awstats/awstats.yourdomainname.com.conf
You should have a look inside to check and change manually main parameters.
You can then manually update your statistics for 'yourdomainname.com' with command:
> perl awstats.pl -update -config=yourdomainname.com
You can also read your statistics for 'yourdomainname.com' with URL:
> http://localhost/awstats/awstats.pl?config=yourdomainname.com

Press ENTER to finish...

cd /usr/local/apache/htdocs
chown -R nobody:nobody awstats-7.4

mkdir -p /home/roy/awstats
chown roy:roy /home/roy/awstats

cd /etc/awstats
nano awstats.yourdomainname.com.conf

Find DirData="/var/lib/awstats" and replace this with DirData="/home/roy/awstats"

Find LogFile="/var/log/httpd/mylog.log" and replace it with LogFile="/usr/local/apache/logs/access_log"

Find LogFormat, we use varnish modified apache logs (varnishcombine), so change this to:
LogFormat = "%host, %host %other %logname %time1 %methodurl %code %bytesd %refererquot %uaquot"

rm -rf /usr/local/apache/logs/access_log
service httpd restart

perl /usr/local/apache/htdocs/awstats-7.4/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -update -config=yourdomainname.com

check :
http://yourserverip/awstats/awstats.pl?config=yourdomainname.com

CSF Installation on Webmin/Virtualmin


Installation
============
Installation is quite straightforward:

rm -fv csf.tgz
wget http://www.configserver.com/free/csf.tgz
tar -xzf csf.tgz
cd csf
sh install.sh

Next, test whether you have the required iptables modules:

perl /etc/csf/csftest.pl

Don't worry if you cannot run all the features, so long as the script doesn't
report any FATAL errors

You should not run any other iptables firewall configuration script. For
example, if you previously used APF+BFD you can remove the combination (which
you will need to do if you have them installed otherwise they will conflict
horribly):

sh /etc/csf/remove_apf_bfd.sh

That's it. You can then configure csf and lfd by edit the files
directly in /etc/csf/*



csf auto-configures your SSH port on installation where it's running on a non-
standard port.

csf auto-whitelists your connected IP address where possible on installation.

You should ensure that kernel logging daemon (klogd) is enabled. Typically, openvz VPS
servers have this disabled and you should check /etc/init.d/syslog and make
sure that any klogd lines are not commented out. If you change the file,
remember to restart syslog. Read This : http://linux-server-admin.blogspot.com/2012/06/syslogd-appears-to-be-running-but-not.html

See the readme.txt file for more information.

Webmin Module Installation/Upgrade
==================================

To install or upgrade the csf webmin module:

Install csf as above
Install the csf webmin module in:
  Webmin > Webmin Configuration > Webmin Modules >
  From local file > /etc/csf/csfwebmin.tgz > Install Module


Uninstallation
==============
Removing csf and lfd is even more simple:

On generic linux servers:

cd /etc/csf
sh uninstall.generic.sh


GD::Graph
=========
This perl module is required for Statistical Graphs available from the csf UI.
It is dependent on garphical libraries being installed for your OS (e.g.
libgd, libpng, etc. which is beyond the scope of this document)

The perl module itself can be installed in a variety of ways, e.g.:

Debian v6:
# apt-get install libgd-graph-perl

Direct from cpan.org:
# perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan> install GD::Graph
