====== Automatize awstats config file creation ======

In my opinion [[http://awstats.sourceforge.net/|awstats]] is THE apache log file analyzer solution. Unfortunately it does not support automatic configuration based on the webserver configuration, which is a great feature to miss IMHO. The following shell script has 3 different sections:

  * First it uses a recursive bash function to parse the //active// and //effective// apache configuration - taking Include directives into account
  * Second it utilizes a not over-complicated [[http://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/|gawk]] script to collect VirtualHost definitions along with ServerName and ServerAlias directives sequentially until a TransferLog directive is found, then it creates (non-yet-existing) awstats configuration files from the collected info using awstats Include directives pointing to the main awstats config file. It also creates a simple HTML index file using a preconfigured URL prefix for all awstats virtual host configurations during the process.
  * The third part is a simple copy of a contributed awstats script that runs awstats for all virtual host configurations


<note>UPDATE: this new script also includes locking to prevent parallel runs and depth control for recursive apache config files</note>
