Hi,

The RaQ3's log file size is set to 100MB, after that it will start logging to a new file and zip the old one. The way it is now webalizer only shows the last few days of my site status. How can I change this file size or do so webalizer keeps my stats?

I have not used webalizer in awhile, but I think there is an incremental processing feature. This allows you to process multiple log files between the times webalizer backs up the data in its history file.

If you check out the README that comes with webalizer it will tell you how to setup incremental processing.

Making your log files larger just means webalizer has to spend more time sifting through them. Also, this just eats up disk space.



I've stopped using webalizer and now use Wusage for my web stats. Wusage's administration is much easier, especially for multiple sites.
