your script has a bug.

if i browse one of the logged hosts from my local area network (and there is a entry with local ip (192.168.100.123) … your script doesnt show anything!
i’ll try to fix that for my own – should be difficult because i cannot code perl… but you should fix that also – it did cost me hours of finding that.
anyway – thanks for your simple and nice script.

Hello,

Thank you for your quick response. You’re right. I forgot to remove a comment before the line in httpd.config.
Now all works fine. Thank you for your help.

Greetings.

Hi Lambda,
You apache logs doesn’t feature referrer information, as stated in the post, “Don’t forget to use the combined log format. Verify that you httpd.conf file has the following line:” … notice the LogFormat and CustomLog apache directives.

Hello.

I have to give you praise for this wonderful tool. By watching the traffic on my little website and I am excited over it. However, I noticed that some things act differently (or did not act). Web robots are never labeled with another color and name as it appears on your image. Not shown is also information on the web browser and it has never shown Referrer. Any idea?
(Alivelog runs on apache 2 server on Ubuntu intrepid.)

Greetings.
