Highcharts Usage

Please note that Highcharts is not an Open Source package and may be used without buying a license only for non-commercial purposes. Read Highcharts' page for additional information about their licensing before enabling Highcharts in the reports:

https://shop.highsoft.com/faq#Non-Commercial-0

See Working with JavaScript Charts for more information about JavaScript charts.

Notes

  • Since v4.2.0 the default transfer amounts will be rendered in human-readable format by default. If you would like to continue using traditional KBytes columns, use ClassicKBytes and change the heading Transfer to KBytes in your language file. See README for additional information.

  • Stone Steps Webalizer v4 cannot read databases created by any other release prior to v4. You need to retain the latest previous version of Stone Steps Webalizer if you would like to generate reports directly from pre-v4 databases (i.e. without reprocessing all log files for that month).

  • Visual Studio 2017 redistributable package may need to be installed prior to running Windows binaries. Run webalizer -v to check if the application can be launched and if you see any errors, download x86 or x64 package at this location:

  • Download new GeoIP city and country databases at either of these locations:
