What additional statistics can I retrieve on my Academus portal?

uPortal logs additional statistics around portal usage outside of 'error' and 'debug' modes that can be useful in tracking information about your institution.  To access this information, please follow the steps outlinded below.

  1. Open:  /portal/unicon/Academus/portal-tomcat-a/webapps/portal/WEB-INF/classes/properties/portal.properties (assuming a standard installation location) in the text editor of your choice and search for 'StatsRecorderFactory.implementation'

  2. Determine the value you would like to set this property to in order specify the behavior of the statistics logging.  The available choices are:

    1. org.jasig.portal.services.stats.PrintingStatsRecorderFactorystats will be printed to standard out

    2. org.jasig.portal.services.stats.LoggingStatsRecorderFactor stats will be logged in the portal's log file

    3. org.jasig.portal.services.stats.DoNothingStatsRecorderFactory stats will be ignored

  3. After setting the statistics logging method, scroll down and select individual statistics that you wish to log. Valid options for each statistic are either 'on' or 'off' (without the single quotes). The function of each individual statistic should be self-explanatory.

 

If you have any additional questions, please submit an incident to Unicon customer support.
