Solution 1

I used LightSquid: http://lightsquid.sourceforge.net/ It was good enough for me for several reasons:

  • It is fast, takes very little diskspace (In comparison with SARG, only ~45Kb of Perl scripts)
  • There is nothing superfluous

You can try it, using online-demo: http://lightsquid.sourceforge.net/demo17/index.cgi?year=2005&month=04

"Official" feauture-list:

  • fast and simple install fast log
  • parser generatesmall per user data
  • file perl based cgi script for
  • dynamic generated report pages html
  • template for design no database
  • required no additional perl module
  • various reports user groups support
  • graphics report (v 1.6+) real name
  • (v 1.6+) multilangual interface

Solution 2

Calamaris might provide what you're looking for. Handles many different types of logs, including squid.

Solution 3

I use Free-SA which is similar to SARG but much faster and doesn't crash on huge log files. It works very well.

"Free-SA is statistic analyzer for daemons log files similar to SARG. Its main advantages over SARG are much better speed (7x-20x times), more reports support, crossplatform work and W3C compliance of generated HTML/CSS reports code."

    Can anyone recommend me a good tool for analyzing squid logs ?

    I'm currently using SARG. Is there something better?
    I need to easily see what sites were visited/denied, when and by whom.

    There is a list of squid analyzers. Some of them seem to be out of date.

    I have managed to install this, and it looks great. Do you have any links to help on setting up cron tasks for it?

    Is it still active? No update on website nor sourcecode since 2009.

    Seems like the project is frozen since then.
