I needed to change in /etc/webalizer.conf

OutputDir /var/www/localhost/htdocs/webalizer.conf

and

#mkdir /var/www/localhost/htdocs/webalizer.conf

[edit] Syncing the tree

Should one really recommand to sync once a day in a wiki? I really believe this is overkill and puts an unnecessary load on the servers. Once a week is plenty enough for me and I usually do not have much to update.

and maybe add --quiet no? exec /bin/nice /usr/bin/emerge --sync --quiet


[edit] Logrotate + Webalizer

If one is to run logrotate, rotating at 4 weeks, as well as webalizer, won't webalizer's statistics be lost for anything older than 4 weeks because of the log rotation?

Is there any way to keep statistics, while not ending up with a giant 5GB logfile? Will it read the rotated ones as well? If yes, even the compressed ones?
