Installation |
||||||||||||||||||||||
You first need to install the Fly package which will compute graphics
for w3perl. Then installation is just a matter of editing three lines
of one file and using the administration interface to customize your
output.

The installation have been greatly enhanced. The files are installed
with the Ghost Installer application. Please read this new manual for full instructions. |

1 - Download the Fly package from Australia or from a mirror site in USA (source and binary both available). Use version 1.6.5 and not the latest 2.0.0 as GIF support have been removed by the author. 2 - Extract the files (tar -xzvf fly.tgz on Unix) 3 - Compile the package or use the binary files.
I've find four different ways to install the package :
Installation can be split into five different parts :
The package should be installed inside the server root.
Default installation will
create a subdirectory /w3perl/ inside your cgi-bin directory.
You'll have the edit the first three lines of one script and run it.
The package need a configuration file to load. This file have
informations about the stats options you need to customize the
output.
Launch some scripts to check your configuration file and make some test output. All stats can be done by only one script if you are on a Unix server.
Add an entry in your crontab to compute stats each night. All you need to do later is to watch the results in your browser each morning !
At last, please tell me you're using w3perl. When you let me know you are using w3perl, you help me justify the time spent in maintaining and improving it. If the results are publicly visible on the web, a URL is a wonderful thing to receive, but if it's not a publicly visible project, a simple note is just as welcome.
See the FAQ and bug report if something's wrong or email me.
