Title: Cron - awstats error
Post by: Mike on April 20, 2002, 11:55:22 PM

I installed awstats a few weeks ago.  After checking the admin mail this morning, I had over 150 emails and am continuing to receive more.  

The email source:

Seems to me a good idea would be to:

"mkdir /var/log/httpd/awstats" at the bash command line.

I recently started getting this too (an e-mail every 5 minutes since yesterday), but I've had awstats running for nearly a year, and have never seen this.

It simpy said:
Could not open /var/log/httpd/awstats/                                                                               www.thegeekhouse.com

I've tried touching that filename, to see if it just couldn't write to that file, and I've tried makdir'ing that directory, both with no results.
