If your squid logfiles are rotated then cron isn't going to give the
expected result as there exists a time between when the cron is run and
the logfiles are rotated. It would be better to call squid-analyzer from
logrotate, eg:
logrotate, create file /etc/logrotate.d/squid with the following
content:
/var/log/proxy/squid-access.log {
daily
compress
rotate 730
missingok
nocreate
sharedscripts
postrotate
test ! -e /var/run/squid.pid || /usr/sbin/squid -k rotate
/usr/bin/squid-analyzer -d -l /var/log/proxy/squid-access.log.1
endscript
/var/log/squid/*.log {
daily
compress
delaycompress
rotate 5
missingok
nocreate
sharedscripts
postrotate
test ! -e /var/run/squid.pid || test ! -x /usr/sbin/squid || /usr/sbin/squid -k rotate
/usr/local/bin/squid-analyzer -d -l /var/log/squid/access.log.1
endscript
}
Be sure that the paths used in this script correspond to your system.
5. Adjust the configuration
Make sure that the LogFile path is correct in your squidanalyzer.conf
file. For instance:
LogFile /var/log/squid/access.log
You can also use network name instead of network ip addresses by using
the network-aliases file. Also if you don't have authentication enable
and want to replace client ip addresses by some know user or computer
