Apache Log Analysis That Supports Virtual Hosts?
I am running apache on 3 mirrored load balanced win2k machines that are home to numerous virtual hosts. the first difficulty i have run into is that, unlike apache on unix, log rotation on win2k requires that the apache NT service is stopped before the log file can be moved or deleted.
it would be great if there were a solution to this, there is another more important problem. these servers are home to numerous virtual hosts. in order to limit the number of file descriptors used by the apache process, i have set apache to log all trafic to one log file where the first entry is the name of the virtual host. apache comes with a perl script that will then split up this one log file into multiple files (one for each virtual host). however, i would rather find a web statistics tool that could parse this one file.
i have also considered risking hitting the file descriptors limit and setting up an access log for each virtual host, but there is another problem with doing that. sometimes a url for a site will be a subdirectory on another site, but that traffic will not show up in the individual virtual host logs.
so i guess my question is: what are my log management options for running apache under win2k/NT???
Thanx.
