Defacto Web Log Analyzer?

Wondering if there's a defacto apache web log analyzer that most of you use for Mac OS X Server?
Seems to be minimal simple options out there to just install and work. I'm not a Unix admin by any stretch, so something with a GUI or Web admin front end would be perfect.
Cheers
Brendan

There is one one 'defacto' analyzer -- the one built into the traffic graphs of the SA.
If you are instead asking what folks like to use, that varies greatly. You can run them yourself or use a 'service' such as Google.
Here's a starter list for you to explore:
Accrue Insight
Analog
AWstats
FunnelWeb
Sawmill
Summary
Urchin / Google Analytics
Webalizer
Wusage
So explore all of those and report back here -- let us know what works best for you, and why.

    Does anyone know of a decent free web log analyzer for the Mac. I don't need anything fancy but all the ones I've seen are for Windows. Thanks.

  • Log analyzer and reporter for Weblogic ?

    We are using Weblogic 6.1 as a web server (no proxy).
    Does anyone know of a good Web log analyzer for Weblogic 6.1 ?
    The analyzer would analyze the log of WLS and display various statistics graphically.
    Something like Webtrends or Analog for IIS, IPlanet and Apache servers.

    AlterWind LogAnalyzer http://www.alterwind.com/loganalyzer/ allows to
    analyse a log file of any format.

  • Web cache log analyzer

    Hello to all
    I spend too many time searching for a software for oracle web cache's log analyzer without any good answer, my question is, is it really impossible to analyze the file event_log generated by oracle web cache?
    Thanks for reading this, specially if you give me an answer ;)

    Oracle provides some "Portal Performance scripts" to sql*load the logs into a schema and then get some figures with seeded views. You can adapt to what you need.

  • Open Source Log Analyzer Project

    Hi people,
    I have a question whether there is a open source project which analyze logs from database. I mean I have a table(Log table which is like syslog message format). I need to analyze this table with a web based project. So, Do you know any open source project that do this? Thanks

    Huh? How is this question related to JSF?
    Anyway, is Google installed at your machine? After feeding it with the topic title "Open Source Log Analyzer Project", it told me here something about AWStats and SourceTree and so on. More can't I (and Google) be of help.
    You can also consider writing one yourself with help of smart coding and nice API's like JFreeChart.

  • Parse Webi Logs

    Has anyone ever attempted to parse a BO webi log file with powershell (or other windows scripting language) to get something in a more friendly output that could be passed on to an internal support team for review?  For example, when I review our log files I see a variety of error messages that might be something I need to pay attention to as a system admin or they might be 'training' type errors that I can hand off to our support team to get with the user.  I want to parse out the 'useful' info and ignore the noise ( such as excess info, 'soft errors', or successes).  Plus, the support team does not have access to our webi logs/webi servers.
    I am self-teaching as I go with powershell and since I have other scripts running in powershell, I started with that (there could be a better way).  I would just like to extract the date, server, full error information and username and format it to a list.  There is just no easy way that I can figure out to identify a single log entry line... or to know where the error information 'really' ends.  Maybe I'm overlooking the obvious though - which is very possible as these webi logs make my eyes go buggy!
    Has anyone ever tried anything like this and can share some insight? we are on 4.0 sp7 patch 7 if it makes a difference in log format or anything.
    thanks in advance,
    Missy

    Hi Mani,
    Thanks for the link to the trace settings - yet another good resource you have provided.  Our ini file is set as follows:
    active = true;
    importance = xl;
    alert = true;
    severity = 'E';
    //keep = false;
    //size = 100 * 1000;
    So, mostly defaults.  Not sure the exact difference in context between s, m, l, and xl, but even with these settings noted above, in our webiserver log, for example, I will get a line that looks like this:
    |12671c8e-cc1c-5164-2b7f-d36028aea63d|2014 07 30 17:14:58:479|-0400|Error| |>>| | |webiserver_SERVERA.WebIntelligenceProcessingServer| 9984|3984|| |2|0|2|0|BIlaunchpad.WebApp|SERVERA:7616:65.106749:1|Webi SDK.CorbaServerImpl.doProcess()|SERVERA:7616:65.106749:2|webiserver_SERVERA.WebIntelligenceProcessingServer.loadStateMDP|localhost:9984:3984.119276:1|CtC8xxN8nEPIkk05usjbm5s1a0fb|||||||||||AsyncCaller:WebiSession[AS6LS2uphS9GilVoKXDMP9k]: loadState by user 'userA' on document 'Webi Report A'  AsyncCaller.cpp:181:bool __cdecl async::AsyncCaller::startRequest(const char *,int): TraceLog message 21020
    So what part of this is an error? To me, this looks like normal processing steps. Another example, would be:
    |1404a918-2cad-9184-6a6b-decec93efe1e|2014 07 30 17:58:06:861|-0400|Error|Error|>>|E| |webiserver_SERVERA.WebIntelligenceProcessingServer| 37332|35556|| |12|0|2|0|BIlaunchpad.WebApp|SERVERB:8700:75751.68935664:1|Webi SDK.CorbaServerImpl.doProcess()|SERVERB:8700:75751.68935664:3|webiserver_SERVERA.WebIntelligenceProcessingServer3.loadStateMDP|localhost:37332:35556.58574:1|CoWFD4_SSEn5rjTHJ2XQgkU41bdff6|||||||||||**ERROR:RequestProc:user: userC, doc: "", error stream: [kctRequestProc.cpp;777]  SharedContextImpl.cpp:227:__cdecl SharedContextImpl::~SharedContextImpl(void): TraceLog message 38279
    That one, I can see how it is an error, generic or otherwise, it is clearly an error.
    What we have been doing with our vb script, is parsing the log files by searching line by line for the word 'user' and then outputting a subset of that line to excel, figuring this gives us errors the user experienced.  What we were surprised to see is the sheer number of errors that the user is supposedly experiencing.  What is also surprising, is that it doesn't appear that the user sees these messages on screen all the time, given that they don't complain and/or we having someone working with the user who verifies no messages on screen appeared, but I can match up timestamps with the log files and their actions performed and see that an error was hit.
    Our initial goal with this was to see what users may need more training, but we also have been using it as a quick way to monitor things too.  So for example, if a user calls and complains they got an error, I'll use this first to help identify which server they were on and check out server related 'things' and then I use the glf viewer to view the full log if I need to analyze things further.
    Also, here's the link I have for the error message guide:
    http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir4/en/xi4_error_messages_en.pdf
    For example, WIS 30600 is not in there.  Is there a different guide?
    Thanks,

  • Advantages of BW Query in SAP Portal when compared to WEB BEx Analyzer

    Hi
    What are the advantages of having a BW Query in SAP Portal when compared to WEB BEx Analyzer
    I had to presention to higher managers of having a SAPPortal for BW report that WEB BEx Analyzer
    can any one please update me with few points (10-20) that will be useful for my presentation

    Hi Krishna ,
    I think you should highlight the portal role in presentation
    Now a days all organizations using sap portal as their user interface. We can login portal once and we can get all the information from bw,crm...sap systems and non sap systems.
    so no need to login each and every system individually.
    The portal offers a single point of access to SAP and non-SAP information sources, enterprise applications, information repositories, databases and services in and outside your organization—all integrated into a single user experience. It provides you the tools to manage this knowledge, to analyze and interrelate it, and to share and collaborate on the basis of it.
    With its role-based content, and personalization features, the portal enables users—from employees and customers to partners and suppliers—to focus exclusively on data relevant to daily decision-making processes
    For all information on portals refer to help.sap.com->documentation->netweaver->Netweaver2004->English

  • Unable to install any .air (media player, log analyzer...)

    Hi all,
    I tried unsuccessfully for three days to install PS CS5 : reboot without BSOD, no windows logs.
    Seeking the origin of the problem I discovered that installing Adobe Media Player 1.7 with .air immediately caused the same problem (crash, reboot).
    Unfortunately the installation of Adobe log analyzer also causes the same crash/reboot !
    If the tool to solve the problems causing the same problems... what can I do ?
    I am an happy user of CS4.

    Help me please.
    Bonsoir de Paris.

    Hi 1Albert, So glad to hear that's working for you
    Yes, some of the older Macs take a little investigation and tweaks like you say, to find the right software to get it working.
    Thanks for posting back and marking your thread as answered. Your thread, as others is helpful for all users of those Macs.

  • Tracking User Activity with Standard Web Logs and Tools Like WebTrends

    We are running EP 6 SP14 on UNIX and I'm looking to track user activity.  Not just how many people have logged in, but who is accessing what documents in KM.  For example, what documents are the most popular and how much use the system is getting.
    I was hoping that EP 6 (Unix platform) ran off us some standard web engine (like Apache) and we could just turn web logs on, but from the lack of discussion on SDN, I'm not encouraged.
    All I've seen is unofficial link to a Portal Activity Report, which would get us part of the way, but is not full web reporting.
    Portal Activity Report:
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn?id=/library/uuid/0101b690-0201-0010-6584-a02730ad5edd
    Does anyone have any insight on this?

    HI llise
    Did you get any answers? We are in the same quandry as the exisitng tracking reports are not sufficient for our needs as our users are used to using more sophisticated tools like livestat.

  • Log Analyzer in Portal SP 17

    Hi,
    where can I found the Log Analyzer in Portal with service stack 17? I can't find it in >> System administration >> Support >> Portal Runtime ?
    Is there any configuration necessary?
    Thanks for your answers.

    Hi Andreas,
    this is normal behaviour. The Log Viewer has been removed from the Portal since SPS16, I think. This is because of the fact that all monitoring related information shall be accessed in the NetWeaver Administrator. So for accessing the logs you have the following possibilities:
    - via NetWeaver Administrator: http://yourportal:port/nwa
    - via Visual Administrator: Log Viewer service
    - Standalone Log Viewer
    Best regards,
    Thomas

  • Apache log analyzer for mac?

    (note: this was posted in the OS 10.6 forum earlier, where it remained without replies. so i'm trying here now)
    i'm looking for an apache log analyzer for mac that is fairly easy to configure and use.
    have done some digging around and could not find anything that i found suitable
    (yes i've seen awstats (want to configure based on local apache - configuration too much of a headache), analog (doesn't even unarchive) and several others. )
    any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

    thanks for the reply doug.
    there was a mac binary of webalizer, which, however, seems to have disappeared.
    compiling from source is not really what i was looking forward to

  • Good Cisco VPN 3030 Log Analyzer

    I need your advice on VPN Conc log analyzer. I am using Kiwi Syslog Enterprise as syslog server. Does any body know or have a recommendation for a good VPN log analyzer that analyzes VPN logs and spit out a report?

    The RME Syslog Analyzer matches syslog messages with managed devices, so for a very large database (a very large number of devices in inventory), high CPU utilization can be expected for this process, even with a lower message rate. Also note that attempting to generate reports when the database insert rate is high and sustained is the worst case possible.

  • Log Analyzer for Cisco devices

    Hi all:
    Could you please help me finding a Log Analyzer tool for Cisco devices (preferably, free).

    In the free arena, many people recommend the Kiwi Syslog Analyzer. Solarwinds bought the product last year and now market a licensed version; but they stil offer a free version as well. See:

  • Long time to start Java Web Client (Analyzer 6.2.1)??

    Does anyone know why Analyzer(6.2.1) takes a long time to start Java Web Client. Sometime it's even take more than 5 minutes. I think it is the Java Plug-in starting on the client computer. Any solution?

    The key to Analyzer 6.2.1 running correctly is the version of Sun Java Plugin. The ideal version (most optimal) is 1.3.0_02.Secondary to this if Analyzer performs OK once you are logged in then it could be down to the speed of your connection. The applet compiles at runtime (unlike Analyzer 5 which was a one time download). The delay in getting to the login screen could be this download.Hope this helps.Paul ArmitageAnalitica Ltd.www.analitica.co.uk
