Geolizer HTTP stats

Sample Geolizer output (fragment)

About Geolizer

This is an enhanced version of the popular Webalizer HTTP server statistics generator. It's main feature is an ability to discover visitor's country by his/her IP address. Default Webalizer method is to extract host suffix from the reversal DNS query (obtained directly from log files, or by webazolver program if HTTP server doesn't reverses client IPs), which is slow and imprecise (for example, Brazilian host could be reversed as .com). Geolizer relies on the GeoIP library API to do the same thing. Thus, no more DNS queries are required, and results are much more precise. Geolizer also has some additional features: it displays file sizes in a human-readable form (bytes/KB/MB/GB/TB) instead of default kilobytes. It also compiles under MinGW/MSYS now, so you can process your UN*X log files on your Windows box. And, finally, Geolizer features a nice eye-candy: country flags! Smiling

Beware as Geolizer also has some bad features (read "bugs"): for example, webazolver won't work anymore, and already resolved hosts aren't handled well. Want to see how it looks like, at all? Take a look at some sample statistics! Or see who else uses Geolizer to produce their server stats.

Tips

  • The country flag pictures can be downloaded at http://flags.blogpotato.de/. Just download and unzip world.small.zip & special.small.zip to the flags/ subdirectory in your HTML output path.
  • You may enhance your Webalizer further (allowing it to identify more user agents, referrers and search engines than normal) using extended configuration files, provided by Enric Naval and available at http://griho.udl.es/webalizer/.
  • It is possible to use multiple configuration files on Webalizer. Just specify them at the command line:
    webalizer -c common.conf -c user_stas.conf
  • Why don't you try also AWStats & WebDruid?!

Simply by downloading the software the service of the voip can be utilized, though for this a fast wireless internet is also required. This is especially benefical for small website hosting companies to contact their clients at a low cost.
