Re: Bandwidth Monitoring per Directory

Hmmm, it would seem that the log file merely puts in the filesize. Not the amount it transferred. I test it with a 10Mb file, and cut it off after 500k ish, and it still reported 10Mb. I don't think apache can do this by itself. I need a mixture of cgi scripts/bash scripts/perl etc

Still lost...and in need of a hard kick in the right direction.

Thanks

Jamie, you may get a better answer from the apache mailing list
(apache.org).

Anyway, I had to do something similar a few years ago and what I did was
make a custom logging format and included information to log the bytes
transferred. From there it's just writing a perl or shell script to total
up bytes transferred for each of the users you have.


I just looked at the apache docs and it looks like you can use

%b (uses a "0" when no bytes are sent)
or
%B (uses a "-" when no bytes are sent)

to log transfer sizes in your access_log

Hope that at least points you in the right direction

Hi everyone...

I've been struggling to come to a conclusion for this problem I need to
solve, and would appreciate all help i can get.

This may be an apache specific problem, but I'm not convinced.  I have
a website that I have registered members on.  I want to offer them a
directory each (To them it will just be a place they can keep files),
but I need to monitor the amount of bandwidth that each of these
members uses.  E.g.  Paul registers, uploads some files to his
directory, and it's 1mb.  5 people download it.  Therefore 5mb
bandwidth was used...I need to know this.  e.g. If someone starts a
download, and then cancels it after 100k, I need to know they didn't
download it all...so a per click basis won't work.

A kick in the right direction would be very useful too.  I've been
trawling through irrelevant sites looking for info, and have hit a nil.

THanks in advance.
Jamie
