Topic: Not able to view results of awstats in server-manager?

[Bas]

Hi there,

I've installed awstats 2.3.4. on a SME 5.6 server. Why can't I view the stats, like I use to with SME 5.5, in the server-manager?

I keep getting the message "you are not allowed to view this page" ???

Can't figger out what is going wrong. Did I miss something with installing awstats, looking at the txt files, it is working.

anyone suggestions how to solve this. I just want to view the stats from my LAN.
This should be no problem......

thx

Bas

the installation of awstats is the Neddix way, not the method with an i-bay

I have had it on the few occasions as well.
It looks like the permissions for /etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/html/awstats  (and /etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/cgi-bin/.awstats)  are not sufficient in some installations.
Fixing the permissions helped.

ok that could be it.
Should I use chmod 777 or something like this? I am still a newbee in regard to linux.

Just to reassure you, I have AWStats working on 5.6, I used the e-smith rpm for it, that was linked right on Neddix site. It works like a charm.

777 is a bit too much, but group and everyone need to open folder (r-x) for folders and run scripts (r-x) for cgi and other scripts. Also in my case images were not readable as well, but they need to be (r--).

[Bas]

What kind of command should I use to get these folders "open"
Is that done by the chmod command ?
If yes which "number" should I use, is that 755 then?

I'm still a bit in the dark......

I am able to see some stats now, but I keep getting these error messages (see below)
I have to open even more, but how ....

What do I do next ?
Please help me to figger out this last part.
