Just started as a webmaster for a company. I need to find statistics on page hits for the company's web pages.

Supposedly the previous webmaster provided them with page hit statistics. I cannot contact him, and no one else knows. Site runs on Apache running Perl. I looked for a file named "counter" in the cgi-bin folder but found nothing. Any ideas?

    Apache should be keeping logs already (probably in /var/log/apache or /var/log/httpd/ ). Tools like http://www.analog.cx/ can help you generate reports from them.

    Wow, they PAY you and you can't even figure that out? In case you can't find it, the actual location of the log file is specified in httpd.conf... If you don't know where httpd.conf is, you should be fired
