Log files are saved to the container that generated them.  While this setup works fine for one container per site installations, it can be difficult to run log parsing analytics packages once you start load balancing a site across multiple containers.  There are several ways you can do this.

  • Write a script to aggregate all of your logs in a single location before analyzing them
  • use Google Analytics to generate statistics for your site
Google Analytics generates statistics for your site independent of the Apache access logs.  While Google Analytics requires that you install a small script on each page you wish to track, many popular software packages have plugins available to take care of this for you.  You can create a Google Analytics account by visiting this link: http://www.google.com/analytics/index.html.
