Domain Names⇑

Description

Specifies the virtual servers that provide Front Page Server Extensions service. When a web site is assigned to multiple domain names or service ports, FrontPage access is only available to the domain name and port combinations specified in this list.

Additional FrontPage Server Extensions packages must be installed in order to make it work properly.

Syntax

Domain_name:port[, ...] The virtual server name is comprised of domain name and port number.

Example

For a web site with domain name "www.mydomain.com" accessible via both HTTP and HTTPS connections, the name list should be something like:
www.mydomain.com:80, www.mydomain.com:443

AWStats Integration⇑

Description

AWStats is a popular log analyzer that generates advanced web server statistics. LiteSpeed web server seamlessly integrates AWStats into its WebAdmin console.

Update Mode⇑

Description

Specifies how AWStats statistics are being updated:

  • Disabled: AWStats is disabled. Statistics will not be updated.
  • Static: Static HTML pages will be created after the statistics have been updated.
  • Dynamic: The statistics will be updated, but static pages will not be created. HTML pages will be generated dynamically by the CGI script awstats.pl.

Syntax

Select from drop down list

Working Directory⇑

Description

Specifies the "DataDir" parameter in the AWStats configuration file. All results files and AWStats databases will be stored there. This directory should be writable by the owner of the document root of this virtual host. Usually the working directory should be set to under the virtual host root like $VH_ROOT/awstats/.

Syntax

A path which can be absolute, relative to $SERVER_ROOT, or relative to $VH_ROOT.

AWStats URI⇑

Description

Specifies the URI where the AWStats results can be accessed in this virtual host.

Syntax

uri

Example

If this URI is set to /awstats/ for the virtual host www.example.com, then the full URL to the AWStats page would be http://www.example.com/awstats/.

Tips

The URI should be unique on this virtual host. Otherwise, overlapped content will be inaccessible.

Site Domain⇑

Description

Specifies the main domain name of this web site. It controls the "SiteDomain" parameter in AWStats's configuration file. It is used by Awstats to generate full URL paths. If not set, the name of this virtual host will be used.

Syntax

domain name

Site Aliases⇑

Description

Specifies all other possible domain names, IP addresses, and host aliases that this virtual host can be accessed with. This value is used to populate the "SiteAliases" parameter in AWStats configuration. It is used to analyze the referrer field in log files and to help AWStats to decide if a referrer URL is a local or external URL. For best performance, use the the minimum number of possible name/address combinations.

Syntax

A list of domain names and IP addresses.

Example

www.myserver.com localhost 127.0.0.1 REGEX[mydomain\.(net|org)$]

Update Interval⇑

Description

Specifies how often AWstats statistics are updated. Options are daily or hourly.

Syntax

Select from drop down list

Update Offset⇑

Description

Specifies when the update should be performed during the Update Interval.

Syntax

Number of seconds.

Example

Set this to 3600 to start statistic processing at 1AM for "Daily" update.

Tips

If many virtual hosts are hosted on one server, it is recommended to spread out the "Update Offset" to avoid multiple AWstats processes running at the same time and server overload. Log processing is a CPU and I/O intensive task.

Secured Connection⇑

Description

Specifies whether HTTPS is used to access AWstats statistics.

Syntax

Select from radio box

Authentication Realm⇑

Description

Specifies an authorization realm for the statistical results. When specified, only authorized users can view the results.

Syntax
