Stats analysis

Details by Andrew Hodgkinson (6):
Just because I couldn’t actually bring myself to complete the prototype site milestone, one last ticket; need log stats analysis. If this can be done in a way that shields IP address etc. privacy issues then it could be public, in which case it’ll need a wrapper in the style of RCVSweb. Otherwise, it can be an administrator restricted service so can be run “raw”.
Changelog:
Modified by Andrew Hodgkinson (6) Sun, October 29 2006 - 16:00:45 GMT
- Status changed from Open to Fixed
Implemented by Changeset #128 to #133 inclusive.
AWStats is now available and access logging has been turned on at the server end. Since AWStats output contains IP address information and geographical location data which might be viewed as revealing private information about site visitors, access it not public. Digest authorisation (ideally over HTTPS, since Digest doesn’t offer much security, but it’s better than nothing) is used to restrict access for authorised users only. AWStats configuration is set to reject anyone that doesn’t have authorised credentials, should they somehow manage to get that far without being thrown out by the web server.
