* Step 1-6<br>\r
Edit this new config file with your own setup :<br>\r
-- Change <a href="awstats_config.html#LogType">LogType</a> value with "W" for analyzing\r
-web server log files, "M" for mail log files, "F" for ftp log files, "O" otherwise.<br>\r
- Change <a href="awstats_config.html#LogFile">LogFile</a> value with full path of your web server log file (You\r
can also use a relative path from your awstats.pl directory).<br>\r
+- Change <a href="awstats_config.html#LogType">LogType</a> value with "W" for analyzing\r
+web server log files, "M" for mail log files, "F" for ftp log files, "O" otherwise.<br>\r
- Check if <a href="awstats_config.html#LogFormat">LogFormat</a> has the value "1" (it means "NCSA apache combined/ELF/XLF log format").<br>\r
- Change <a href="awstats_config.html#DirIcons">DirIcons</a> parameter to reflect relative path of icon directory.<br>\r
- Edit <a href="awstats_config.html#SiteDomain">SiteDomain</a> parameter with the main domain name or the intranet \r

* Step 1-5<br>\r
Edit this new config file with your own setup :<br>\r
-- Change <a href="awstats_config.html#LogType">LogType</a> value with "W" for analyzing\r
-web server log files, "M" for mail log files, "F" for ftp log files, "O" otherwise.<br>\r

+- Change <a href="awstats_config.html#LogType">LogType</a> value with "W" for analyzing\r
+web server log files, "M" for mail log files, "F" for ftp log files, "O" otherwise.<br>\r
- Change <a href="awstats_config.html#LogFormat">LogFormat</a> to value "2" (it means "IIS Extended W3C log format").<br>\r
- Change <a href="awstats_config.html#DirIcons">DirIcons</a> parameter to reflect relative path of icon directory.<br>\r
- Edit <a href="awstats_config.html#SiteDomain">SiteDomain</a> parameter with the main domain name or the intranet\r
section <a href="#READ">Read Statistics</a>), you should run an update process from a scheduler (command is same than\r
first process) frequently.<br>\r
<br>\r
-You can add instructions in your <b>crontab</b> (Unix/Linux) or your <b>task scheduler</b> (for\r
-Windows), to launch frequently this Awstats update process.<br>\r
-For sites with:<br>\r
-- 10,000 visitors a month Launch AWStats once a day<br>\r
-- 50,000 visitors a month Launch AWStats once every 4 hours<br>\r
-- 250,000 visitors a month Launch AWStats once an hour<br>\r
-- 1,000,000 visitors a month Launch AWStats once an hour<br>\r
-This is ABSOLUTELY necessary to keep good performances.<br>\r
-See AWStats <a href="awstats_benchmark.html">Benchmark page</a> for more accurate information.<br>\r
-<br>\r
-!!! Warning, if you don't use (or can't use with IIS) the <a href="awstats_config.html#PurgeLogFile">PurgeLogFile</a> parameter,\r
-it's very important that you don't forget to purge/rotate your log file yourself (or setup your web server to do it)\r
-frequently (You can find help for this on <a href="awstats_faq.html#CRONTAB">FAQ-SET550</a>).\r
-Even if AWStats never analyzes twice the same log record, the more often you clean your log file, the\r
-faster AWStats will be.<br>\r
+You have two choice:<br>\r
+- Include the update in your <b>logrotate</b> process. See <a href="awstats_faq.html#ROTATE">FAQ-COM120</a> for this.<br>\r
+- Or add instructions in your <b>crontab</b> (Unix/Linux) or your <b>task scheduler</b> (for\r
+Windows), to launch frequently this Awstats update process. See <a href="awstats_faq.html#CRONTAB">FAQ-COM130</a> for this.<br><br>\r
+See AWStats <a href="awstats_benchmark.html">Benchmark page</a> for recommanded update/logrotate frequency.<br>\r
