I configured my web.xml to enable appstats for my cron job. My cron job is handled by a servlet at the URL http://myapp.appspot.com/cron/myjob and executed once an hour.
When I access the appstats admin interface at the URL http://myapp.appspot.com/appstats/stats.
I can see stats about /appstats URLs but not about /cron URLs. I was expecting appstats to record events everytime the cron job has been executed. Here is my web.xml:
<web-app>
<!-- Servlets -->
<filter>
<filter-name>guiceFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>com.google.inject.servlet.GuiceFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>guiceFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<!-- AppStats -->
<filter>
<filter-name>appstats</filter-name>
<filter-class>com.google.appengine.tools.appstats.AppstatsFilter</filter-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>logMessage</param-name>
<param-value>Appstats available: /appstats/details?time={ID}</param-value>
</init-param>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>appstats</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/cron/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<!-- AppStats Servlet -->
<servlet>
<servlet-name>appstats</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.google.appengine.tools.appstats.AppstatsServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>appstats</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/appstats/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<!-- <security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<url-pattern>/appstats/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>admin</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint> -->
<!-- Default page to serve -->
</web-app>
Solution: I fixed it by putting the AppStats filter before the Guice filter
