Once Webalizer has been installed in the system we must add the following lines into the httpd.conf file of Apache to be able to locate and use it features.
Now it's time to run the program to generate reports, html and graphics in the default Webalizer directory so that we can see them in our web browser interface. This step is required just the first time you install
and use Webalizer, since it's preferable to use a cron job to automate this task in the future. To run Webalizer manually, to generate reports, use the following command:
[root@deep ] /# /usr/bin/webalizer

At this stage, we should verify that Webalizer is working on the system. To do that, point your web browser to the following address: https://my-web-server/usage/.
The my-web-server is the address where your Apache web server lives, and usage is the directory that host all the Webalizer reports files.
