Log Analyzer for Apache [closed]

splunk is great for error logs. there are free and paid versions available.


Checkout Visitors . It is a ridiculously fast Apache Log parser. You can set it up to do even real time logging.


As far as I know, awstats is basically the standard. I haven't heard of anything widely considered better than it (not that I'm an expert on such things).

You're unlikely to find an analyzer for the error log because unlike the access log, there's no standard format for error log data. What shows up in the error log is entirely up to the web app or CGI script that puts it there. Perhaps the most common choice of format, or at least the one used by several standard Apache modules like mod_ssl, is

[date] [level] message

but I routinely see lines that don't even follow that format in my own server's logs. And anyway, I'm not sure what kind of analysis you'd be able to do on error log messages in general - it would be highly dependent on what's producing the log lines you'd want to analyze.


What about analog? Its pretty speedy.
