      After manually installing perl and clearing up stupid typos that I insist on making, I got it working on my 2.2-x64 test box.  I'm trying to make it work on a 2.1.5-i386 box and it does everything except write the report into the output folder.  NO errors, but no output.  Hmmm.

      Does anyone know if this script will handle archived logs, like access.log.0, access.log.1 etc?

          The script runs, but it doesn't create any files and there is no error log or anything.  Here is the output:

          [2.1.5-RELEASE][admin@pfsense.MyDomain.local]/etc/squidanalyzer(137): perl /usr/local/bin/squidanalyzer -d -r -c /etc/squidanalyzer/squidanalyzer.conf /var/squid/logs/access.log
          No new log registered…

            OK, I managed to get it working by running just this command:

            perl /usr/local/bin/squidanalyzer /var/squid/logs/access.log
            

            Just that by itself generated the reports.

                No problem.  I've long since given up on it and moved on.

                  Guys, thank you very much for this How-To … I was able to install SquidAnalyzer v6.1, It works really good ...

                  Topper727, can you compile/port the new version ?

                  Thanx in advance

                      I looked up the new version.. seems nothing new yet or I missed it. mine is still working quite well. love to see how many hits in percents and all that per day and all that stuff..shows me squid proxy is working and if I make a change I can see maybe a increase or decrease in stuff proxy caches.. Nice to have

                        Wish someone with package skills could turn this into package for all of us.  Nice reporting tool

                          then ran your command

                          cd /temp/squidanalyzer/ && perl squid-analyzer -r -c /etc/squidanalyzer/squidanalyzer.conf /var/squid/logs/access.log
                          perl: Command not found.

                                When I ran pkg install perl5 I got this

                                  I get

                                      Ah .. make sure you have this file

                                      /etc/squidanalyzer/squidanalyzer.conf

                                      It should have this inside

                                      This file is the default configuration file for SquidAnalyzer

                                      Edit it to match your needs and copy it under /etc/squidanalyzer/squidanalyzer.conf

                                      Path where SquidAnalyzer should dump all HTML and images files.

                                      Choose a path that can  be read by a Web browser

                                      The URL of the SquidAnalyzer javascript, HTML and images files.

                                      If you want to use DNS name instead of client Ip address as username enable

                                      the client ip address, this allow you to use the DNS name instead.

                                      Note that you must have a working DNS resolution and that it can really slow

                                      down the generation of reports.

                                      not resolve you may want to increase the DNS lookup timeout. By default

                                      SquidAnalyzer will stop to lookup a DNS name after 0.0001 second (100 ms).

                                      name by full user name, create a file with this format :

                                      By default SquidAnalyzer is saving current collected statistics each time

                                      you have huge log file and don't have enough memory this will slow down the

                                      parser by forcing Perl to use temporaries files. Use lower value following

                                      your memory and the size of your log file, on very huge log file with lot of

                                      requests/seconde a value of 30 minutes (1800) or less should help.

                                      Use this directive to show the top N users that look at an URL or a domain.

                                      Set it to 0 to disable this feature.

                                      logo. The default value is defined as follow:

                                      Feel free to define your own header but take care to not break current design.

                                      #CustomHeader My ISP Company

                                      This directive allow exclusion of some unwanted methods in report statistics

                                      like HEAD, POST, CONNECT, etc. Can be a comma separated list of methods.

                                      like TCP_DENIED/403 which are generated when a user accesses a page the first

                                      time without authentication. Can be a comma separated list of methods.

                                      This should of been created by unzipping the files from my original zip. Not sure why it failed there.  If file exists maybe permission?

                                          Allright so I bought myself a new comp so I had to format pfSense tried to add it again and no luck this time i added the directory

                                          to etc

                                          So when running the command

                                           cd /temp/squidanalyzer/ && perl squid-analyzer -r -c /etc/squidanalyzer/squidanalyzer.conf /var/squid/logs/access.log
                                          
                                          

                                          I would get

                                          ERROR: you must give a valid output directory. See option: Output
                                          

                                          But isn't the output directory the /var/squid/logs/access.log

                                          Thank you

                                            Yes, I also noticed that perl version is now gone from the repository.  I will have to find out what perl will work and not break a system.  As far as the zip file error I think it is bad copy.. I re installed my firewall just recently so I will put this squidanalyzer back in when I do I will update the install steps again to include the new perl and new files if needed
