Installation
LogView comes with the Roxen Challenger Pro and Roxen Platform
distributions, and is installed automatically. In Challenger Pro you
will have to enable it manually on each virtual server LogView should
handle statistics for. For Roxen Platform LogView is installed
automatically when you enable a SiteBuilder virtual server.
When the module is enabled the next step is usually to go to
LogView configuration interface. In case of Challenger Pro this is
by default found on http://virtual.server.name/logview. For
Platform it is found under LogView in the
Plugins tab.
However, it is a good idea to check if the default values need any
modification. This is done by selecting the LogView option that
has now appeared in the list of installed modules.
In the following sections, the different options under the LogView
module configuration are explained.
- Admin password
-
Here the password for LogView administration can be changed. By
default, this value is the same as the password used for Challenger
administration.
Note: The number of the stars symbolizing the password is always
four, regardless of the actual number of letters in the password.
- Admin user name
-
The user name of the LogView administrator, by default the same as the
Challenger administrator.
- Enable <logview> tag
-
If No is selected, the LogView tag will only work inside the
LogView user interface pages. If Yes is selected, the tag can
be used on any page on the virtual server, as described in the section
Putting reports on other pages in the User's manual. The
default value is No.
- Log path
-
Specifies the directory where LogView will put its own logs. The
default value is
../logs/new/logview.data/
Note: Please use different directories
for every LogView installation. Otherwise the state of the
internal LogView files will become unclear and LogView
will fail to operate correctly.
- Minimize load
-
If set to Yes LogView will try not to run updates concurrently
even if it is used in several virtual servers.
- Mount path
-
Specifies the place in the virtual file system of the server where the
LogView user interface can be accessed. The default value is
/logview/
- Update hour
-
Which hour LogView should update the statistics groups. Can be set to
Every hour if the statistics should be updated each hour rather
than once every day.
- Update nice value
-
The nice value of the update process. If set to a higher value the
update process will not be as efficient at getting system resources as
other processes running on the computer. Often it is more important
that the actual web server gets system resources than the update
process, and in that case it makes sense to give it a high nice value.
- Viewer password
-
Specifies the password needed to access the user interface, if
password protection is enabled.
Note: the number of the stars symbolizing the password is always four,
regardless of the actual number of letters in the password.
By default, this value is empty.
- Viewer user name
-
If this field contains a name, the user has to log in with this user
name and the password specified above. Only one user can be specified.
By default, this value is empty.
