Updates

To update Piwik, switch off the recording of stats by setting record_statistics to 0 in /web/stats.transitionnetwork.org/piwik/config/config.ini.php:

[Tracker]
record_statistics = 0

Backup the config file:

cd /web/stats.transitionnetwork.org/
cp piwik/config/config.ini.php .

Download, extract, and update the database and restart php-fpm:

export PIWIK=2.1.0
wget "http://builds.piwik.org/piwik-$PIWIK.tar.gz"
tar -zxvf piwik-$PIWIK.tar.gz
cp config.ini.php piwik/config/
chown -R www-data:www-data piwik/
php /web/stats.transitionnetwork.org/piwik/index.php -- "module=CoreUpdater" 
/etc/init.d/php5-fpm restart

Switch recording of stats back on by setting record_statistics to 1 in /web/stats.transitionnetwork.org/piwik/config/config.ini.php:

[Tracker]
record_statistics = 1

Login and do a system check, there will be an error because we have overwritten three logo files, see ticket:672, but there shouldn't be any other errors.

The Transition Network logo is now uploaded via the web interface, see ticket:697#comment:3

Server Log Analytics

Following a failed attempt to get wiki:AwStatsInstall working Piwik has been set up to analyse the Nginx logs from wiki:PuffinServer.

The Nginx logs from wiki:PuffinServer are copied to wiki:PenguinServer as documented on the wiki:AwStatsInstall page.

The logs are imported using the wiki:PiwikImportScript which is run by the www-data user using this crontab:

30 07 * * * /usr/local/bin/piwik-import > /dev/null
