I migrated awstats from one server to another, and I copied the old stats and configuration. I had to change apache log directory but it seems it is working: http://permaculture.org.au/awstats/awstats.pl
The issue is that icons are missing and graphics do not have colours. The line in apache2 config
Alias /awstats-icon/ "/usr/share/awstats/icon/"
is okay since there are the icons in that directory:
root@server:/etc/awstats# ls -l /usr/share/awstats/icon/ total 36 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-11-03 13:34 browser drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-11-03 13:34 clock drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-11-03 13:34 cpu drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 12288 2011-11-03 13:34 flags drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-11-03 13:34 mime drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-11-03 13:34 os drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-11-03 13:34 other
last issue is that when I run awstats from the shell the script hangs here:
root@server:/etc/awstats# /usr/lib/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=awstats.permaculture.org.au.conf -update Create/Update database for config "/etc/awstats/awstats.conf" by AWStats version 6.9 (build 1.925) From data in log file "/var/log/apache2/access.log"... Phase 1 : First bypass old records, searching new record... Searching new records from beginning of log file... Phase 2 : Now process new records (Flush history on disk after 20000 hosts)... Reverse DNS lookup for ::1 not available without ipv6 plugin enabled.
We have alias in apache config file:
If the icons are missing on the web page. Check with your access.log for it would show you the images that are not found as
404and you would know where is the webpage searching for the icons in and configure your alias as accordingly.Secondly, disable IPv6 if you are not running/using it. ::1 is the ipv6 address for your localhost. Also you might be missing a few perl modules see here for more info.
I have symlinked the icons from the configured virtual host root directory to the real directory where they were stored.
