1.1 - Extract Download the W3Perl package. Extract it on your web server root, it will create a /w3perl/ directory. 1.2 - Permission
Give execution permission to the scripts (chmod +x *.pl) if not.
1.3 - Installation
1.4 - Configuration file
Use your favourite browser and go to http://localhost/w3perl/admin/ . You'll see the w3perl administration interface.
1.5 - Compute stats Now you're ready to compute your stats ! You can use the 'Launch scripts' in the administration interface and click on the different scripts to launch them or use the command line to run the scripts. It's up to you. Avoid using both launch as web user and login user have different file access permission. 1.6 - Crontab If everything is right, edit cron-w3perl.pl, choose when you want to launch the different scripts and finally add it in your crontab. When launch with the -a flag, cron-w3perl will update all stats for you.
