AWStats is a free powerful and featureful tool that generates advanced web, streaming, ftp or mail server statistics, graphically. This log analyzer works as a CGI or from command line and shows you all possible information your log contains, in few graphical web pages. It uses a partial information file to be able to process large log files, often and quickly. It can analyze log files from all major server tools like Apache log files (NCSA combined/XLF/ELF log format or common/CLF log format), WebStar, IIS (W3C log format) and a lot of other web, proxy, wap, streaming servers, mail servers and some ftp servers.
AWStats is such a great statistical tracking program to use, but there seems to be a lack of easy-to- follow documentation available for installing AWStats on IIS. This document covers the basic setup process and will certainly get you started tracking statistics for your websites. If anyone is having troubles getting AWStats to work with IIS 6.0 (or IIS 5.1) after following this documentation please write to me and I will do my best to respond.
