Webalizer reads the Apache access log files to generate website statistics. By default, it is configured to analyze the main Apache access log file located at /var/log/httpd/access_log. You can modify the configuration by editing the Webalizer configuration file at /etc/webalizer.conf. Update the necessary settings such as LogFile, OutputDir, and Hostname according to your requirements.

Once the configuration is updated, you can generate the Webalizer reports using the following command:

This command will analyze the access log file and generate the statistics report. The report files will be saved in the OutputDir specified in the configuration file.

 

6. Access the Webalizer reports:

The generated reports can be accessed via a web browser. By default, the reports are stored in the /var/www/html directory. You can access them using the following URL:
