is AWStats / Features Overview 
</h1>
 
 
AWStats is short for Advanced
Web Statistics. AWStats is powerful
log analyzer which creates advanced web, ftp, mail and streaming
server statistics reports&nbsp; based on the rich data contained in
server logs.&nbsp; Data is graphically presented in easy to read
web pages.
&nbsp;
 
AWStats development started in 1997 and is still developed today by same author (<a href="https://www.destailleur.fr">Laurent Destailleur</a>).
However, development is now done on "maintenance fixes" or small new features. Reason is that author spend, since July 2008, most of his time as project leader on another major OpenSource projet called <a href="https://www.dolibarr.org" title="Easy to use software to manage your company">Dolibarr ERP & CRM</a> and works
also at full time for <a href="https://www.teclib.com" title="French Open Source company">TecLib, a french Open Source company</a>.
A lot of other developers maintains the software, providing patches, or packages, above all for Linux distributions (fedora, debian, ubuntu...). 
 
Designed with flexibility in mind, AWStats can be run through a web browser CGI (common
gateway interface) or directly from the operating system command line.
Through the use of intermediary data base files, AWStats is able to
quickly process large log files, as often desired.&nbsp;
With support for both standard and custom log format definitions,
AWStats can analyze log files from Apache (NCSA combined/XLF/ELF or
common/CLF log
format),
Microsoft's IIS (W3C log format),
WebStar and most web, proxy, wap and streaming media servers as well as
ftp and mail server logs. 
 
See how the most famous open source statistics tools (AWStats, Analog,
Webalizer) stack up feature by feature in this <a href="awstats_compare.html#COMPARISON">comparison
table</a>. 
 
AWStats is free software distributed under the <a href="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html" target="_gnugpl">GNU
General Public License v3</a> (GPL v3). The <a href="awstats_license.html">license
chart</a> illustrates what you can and can't do. 
As AWStats works from the command line as well as a CGI, it is
compatible with all web hosting providers
which allow CGI and log access.

and unresolved IP addresses list. 
* Most viewed, Entry and Exit pages. 
* Most commonly requested File

mail server log files. See <a href="awstats_faq.html#LOGFORMAT">AWStats
F.A.Q.</a> for examples. 
* Reports can be run from the operating system command line and from a
web browser as a
CGI (common gateway interface).&nbsp; In CGI mode, dynamic filter
capabilities are available for many charts. 
* Statistics update can be run from a web browser as well as
scheduled for automatic processing. 
* Unlimited log file size 
* Load balancing system split log files. 
* Support 'nearly sorted' log files, even for entry and exit pages. 
* Reverse DNS lookup before or during analysis; supports DNS cache

* Help and HTML tooltips available in reports. 
* Easy to use - all configuration directives are confined to one file
for each site. 
* Analysis database can be stored in XML format for easier use by external

* A Webmin module is supplied. 
* Absolutely free (even for web hosting providers); source code is
included (<a href="awstats_license.html">GNU General Public License</a>).

	Requirements: 
AWStats usage has the following requirements: 
* You must have access to the server logs for the reporting you want to
perform
(web/ftp/mail). 
* You must be able to run perl scripts (.pl files) from command line
and/or as a CGI.&nbsp; If not, you can solve this by downloading latest
Perl version at <a href="http://www.activestate.com/ActivePerl/">ActivePerl</a>
(Win32) or <a href="http://www.perl.com/pub/language/info/software.html">Perl.com</a>
(Unix/Linux/Other). 
See <a href="awstats_faq.html#SERVERSOS">AWStats F.A.Q.</a> for
examples of supported OS and Web servers.
