 Posted: Sat Apr 02, 2005 4:10 pm Post subject: Awstats setup --> problems |
 |
|
I have an Apache2 server with php/mysql support. I wanted to have a program that shows me some statistics. I saw the program "AWstats". I"ve emerged it, and then followed the guide:
http://awstats.sourceforge.net/docs/awstats_setup.html
Step1 is installing it (but gentoo emerged it) and then I changed a bit the config file, like said in the guide. Then step2, it begins with:
| Code: |
awstats.pl -config=myvirtualhostname -update
|
But there is no such file or command (because gentoo emerges I think). What to do now? How can I start awstats? I thought it was a very nice webbased program with graphics and things like that.. |

| What is the location of awstats.pl? Changes are that it is in your cgi-bin and not in your PATH, so you cannot simply just type the command. What happens if you use paths when executing the command? |

I'm sorry, I was in the wrong directory.
When I typ: http://localhost/cgi-bin/awstats.pl I got the error that he can't find the "awstats.localhost.localdomain.conf". Offcourse not, it named "awstats.gentoo.serveftp.org.conf" because that my hostname. So I changed it to localhost.localdomain, so everything works, only, if some people go the my site, and I load awstats, I see 0 users. How come?
You can test it:
http://gentoo.serveftp.org
http://gentoo.serveftp.org/cgi-bin/awstats.pl |

Good idea. I'd hate to see another gentoo user have to suffer through
a disk format and re-install. That can be very painful, especially if you've got a production
server running.
Cheers, |

No, your computer should be fine. You might want to use grep or vim to search your /var/log/apache2/access_log for the word perl .
If you don't find any awstats perl calls(like the one I listed above) you probably haven't been attacked yet.

| I've read on their site that version 6.4 is out and that is fixes a security bug, is that this bug? Version 6.4 isn't avaible yet with emerge, so can I just download the .tar.gz file and install it that way without problems? |

It is available with emerge... I merged it on March 24.
Try echo "net-www/awstats ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords or emerge sync! |

did the trick, emerge 6.4 version now. Do I need to unmerge first? Or jsut emerge over it? I just emerged over it, I hope that now that security bug is fixed and I can use awstats? |
