I have a bunch of Apache log files that I would like to analyze. I'm looking for a tool that doesn't require much setup; something that I can run a log through the command line, without messing around on our live web servers.
Any recommendations?

wtop is cool. There's other utilities as well. Often, I'll parse logs using bash, sed, and awk. | |||

What sort of output do you want? If you are you just looking to count things then grep something logfile.txt | wc -l works great. If you want pretty graphs... not so much. | |||

if you have a windows workstation that you can use then logparser is the tool of choice! | |||

analog works well out of the box and doesn't require a lot of setup. logwrangler is a package that works with analog to generate nicer output and also requires little setup. | |||

Instead of using a command line tool I would suggeset to try Apache Logs Viewer. It's a free tool which can monitor and analyze the Apache Log File. It can generate some pretty cool graphs and reports on the fly. More info from http://www.apacheviewer.com | |||

apachetop is pretty cool; it prints live statistics. You run it with apachetop -f /var/log/apache2/www.mysite.com.access.log To install it in Debian/Ubuntu: or from source: https://github.com/JeremyJones/Apachetop There is also an interesting script in http://www.intuitive.com/wicked/84-exploring-apache-access_log-shell-script.shtml | ||||
