      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.

              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

                            When I ran pkg install perl5 I got this

                            FreeBSD repository update completed. 24761 packages processed.

                            I wonder if there is something with your repository lists.

                              what happens if you type

                              perl -v

                              I get

                                I get Fatal no configuration file

                                But i do have the squid analyzer webui

                                  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

                                  Output /usr/local/www/squidanalyzer

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

                                  WebUrl /squidanalyzer

                                  Set the path to the Squid log file

                                  LogFile /var/squid/logs/access.log

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

                                  this directive. When you don't have authentication, the username is set to

                                  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.

                                  UseClientDNSName 1

                                  If you have enabled UseClientDNSName and have lot of ip addresses that do

                                  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).

                                  DNSLookupTimeout 0.001

                                  Set the file containing network alias name. Network are

                                  show as Ip addresses so if you want to display name instead

                                  create a file with this format :

                                  LOCATION_NAME IP_NETWORK_ADDRESS

                                  Separator must be a tabulation

                                  NetworkAlias /etc/squidanalyzer/network-aliases

                                  Set the file containing user alias name. If you don't have auth_proxy

                                  enable user are seen as Ip addresses, or if you want to replace login

                                  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.

                                      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

                                            Lightsquid hmm not really looked into what it uses to run.  Squidanalyzer is so much more indepth .. wish someone would make a package for it. I am not really that skilled to make yet. and not know the system well enough to know if I will break something till I try it.

                                            I may try tomorrow to get squid analyzer going again. if so I post what I did. I got a clean machine here as I reinstalled cause of too much modding to it got it messy..
