Re: [cobalt-users] Webalizer on Qube3

[David Shugarts <Azimuth@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, Santiago!  This worked, although I do not completely understand yet.

I did exactly as the How-To specified, and there was no problem. The last
thing they tell you to do is to visit the site www.yourdomain.com/awstats
and this showed the results of the few hits that had come in during the hour
in which the install occurred (no historical data). This is not a problem,
but I suspect that your further advice about the awstats.sh cron script
applies here, except I don't understand it. The entire contents of the
script at the moment is:

cd /home/groups/home/web/awstats/cgi-bin
perl awstats.pl -config=localhost -output -staticlinks >
/home/groups/home/web/awstats/index.html


Also, I do not understand your instruction "After the $ just complete with
.html."

Thanks for your help!
