+webalizer for Debian
+--------------------
+
+For configuration, checkout /etc/webalizer/webalizer.conf. Full description
+of the different options is in there too. Also, the 'webalizer --help'
+command might be useful.
+
+NOTE: This package was ported to use Gettext.
+ Option --with-language=<language> in configure script was striped.
+ If your language wasnt in webalizer, please translate .po file and
+ sent to me.
+
+NOTE: This package was linked against GD 1.3, instead of 1.2. libgd-1.3's
+ copyright is fairly different compared to libgd-1.2's. In fact,
+ version 1.3 of this graphics library is DFSG compliant. So the
+ copyright mentioned in the COPYRIGHT file that comes with the source
+ package of webalizer, doesn't apply to the binary package (at least,
+ the GD-stuff in the COPYRIGHT file doesn't).
+
+
+About webalizer cron.d script.
+-----------------------------------
+Since webalizer (2.01.10-30) version, cron.d script (/etc/cron.daily/webalizer)
+Was changed to read /etc/webalizer/*.conf files instead of just one
+/etc/webalizer.conf config file.
+If you want to create .conf files to multiple domains or vhost, just create
+your .conf file in /etc/webalizer and cron.d script will run all days.

+FAQ:
+ Q:
+ Debian Bug report logs - #81918
+ Webalizer doesn't run properly but display some sort of error messages:
+
+ $ webalizer -q -n www.linuxtag.de -t Web Statistik -o \
+ /var/lib/webspace/service.ffis.de/stats/www.linuxtag.de \
+ /var/lib/webspace/etc/www.linuxtag.de/2001-01-10.log
+ Error: Unable to restore run data (99)
+ A:
+ Any error that says it failed to load the data file indicates a corrupt
+ data file. The one mentioned in the bug report is an exception (error 99),
+ which means that the data file being read was from a previous version and
+ is incompatible with the version being run.
+
+ Q:
+ Debian Bug report logs - #299260
+ Webalizer: fails to operate on squid-logs if locales is set to de_DE@euro
+ due to bad date
+ A:
+ The webalizer requires the date field to be confirmant to RFC specs..
+ You can change that in apache, but it breaks RFC conformance.
+
+ Q:
+ Debian Bug report logs - #114768
+ I've switched off the URL report (it's a collated log file of multiple
+ sites, so there ain't much info in there).
+ But the "Top URLs By KBytes" still appears, only the listing by # of hits is
+ gone.
+ It does work for all the other tables I've switched off (both Referrer
+ tables, for example).
+ A:
+ There are 2 URL tables: one by hits, and one by KBytes. Setting TopURLs to
+ zero suppresses the one by hits. Setting TopKURLs to zero suppresses the
+ one by KBytes.
+
+ Q:
+ Debian Bug report logs - #258058
+ Webalizer generates html reports that have badly encoded polish special
+ signs, i.e. they display as "?".
+ A:
+ Problem with browser not generating polish, possible fix is to add
+ a charset tag via the HTMLHead config option for the correct charset.
+
+ Q:
+ Debian Bug report logs - #98749
+ Webalizer can't handle spaces in URLs at all, the URL is cut at the
+ first space and the statistics are generated accordingly.
+ For example "Test File" is handled as if it were "Test"
+ A:
+ True. According to the RFC, space characters are considered 'unsafe'
+ and should not be used in URLs. In addition, space characters are
+ used for field terminators in web logs. Leave it to Microsoft to
+ encourage their use and subvert the RFC.
+
+ Q:
+ Debian Bug report logs - #298823
+ "Warning: String exceeds storage size" problem
+ I'm *regularily* getting the following notorious messages:
+ [new_unode] Warning: String exceeds storage size (261)
+ A:
+ These are simply warnings and do not effect the program. Same with
+ the 'Truncating...' messages. If it really bugs someone, they can
+ increase the buffer sizes in webalizer.h, but can otherwise be safely
+ ignored.
