AwStats plugin for DA [Still in BETA]

i have tried accessing awstats via other domains that have accounts as "user" with the same problem, and yes, i ticked the boxes that says activate awstats on the accounts in the admin panel. It still has the same error. I checked the chmod, chown, and everything seems to be right.

:(
 
As idefense suggests, as a workaround solution, disable all URLPlugins in the AWStats configuration(s).

Also, I'm at such a crossroads here. I used webalizer first, oh many years ago. Then I switched to awstats. Now, with the new DA server, I must choose again.

Awstats is a bettert stat package. The look and feel is MUCH more professional (as mentioned in another thread, webalizer looks like 'amatuer ouput'). The #of visits, hits, etc.. seem much more realistic. It's especially more helpful to the webmaster. There is a plugin that tells you the "% of users with FLASH plugin", Java, monitor/screen sizes, etc...

There is a section that shows you which search spiders have visited and when. There's also the ability to monitor ftp & mail stats (tho I admit not knowing if webalizer has this ability as well). Plus more...

Overall a better stats solution but NOT at the expense of vulnerabilities. Especially when you see hundreds of lines in the logs all trying to screw up the server through AWStats.

Just my 2cents worth...

I'm working on it, but I've changed so much in last version that I'm trying to get all the changes into 6.5

The problem is that I can't compare the awstats version in the plugin with any original release, as it was a snapshot release of 6.4

The vunarability shouldn't be open in my release, as most plugin stuff is disabled and no plugins are used in the standard install.

But I will still release the new version as quick as the changes can be implemented in the new version ;)

Hang on ;)
 
Great plugin/functionality however not sure if anyone came across this issue yet or not....

I have a system with two hard drives on it the 2nd being used as /home2 for the user partition/directories. Awstats is not reading any users but those on /home on the primary drive (being only one user of the original wheel user). How exactly would I need to go about adjusting awstats to make it see both /home and /home2 on the server?

You'll have to change all the scripts, or if you use it without the panel funtionality change:

awstatsinstall.php

It's documented.

Great, thanks for all your work on this
 
Update 2.1.3

v. 2.1.3

* Auto-update Awstats version at each install/update
* Patches the awstats to remove several security issues

This will probably be the last release of the plugin. Awstats will automaticaly be updated/installed so there's no need to wait until I release a new version.

Just HIT the install button after a new verion is released

Requires: SED for patching

I just installed 2.1.3 and now I'm getting server 500 errors. I tried uninstalling everything and reinstalling... no go.

Installed without any problem.

Something wrong, maybe ...

In admin, when we want to say "no awstats for this user", user have no more the link to configure awstat, but its link domaine.Com/awstat is already workink.

De-select the user should delete to the directory awstats on its domain, no ?

Yes that should do the trick. Disabling it doesn't remove the dir. The plugin doesn't remove dirs in the user dir, because noobs could put files in there that could be of "some" use :p

Do you have "sed" installed ? This is used to do the patching. Please in case it is installed: pm/mail me the install log as it apears in DA ;)
 
Hey, I had the previous (or one of) version working fine on another server, but now when I try I get the following error.

[root@saturn awstats]# /usr/local/directadmin/plugins/awstats/hooks/cgi-bin/awstats_updateall.pl now -awstatsprog=/usr/local/directadmin/plugins/awstats/hooks/cgi-bin/awstats.pl
Error: Can't scan directory /etc/awstats.

Thanks,

Please check the permissions on the /etc/awstats dir.
 
Fixed :D I had to uninstall and install again through DA. Another problem:

[root@saturn cgi-bin]# /usr/local/directadmin/plugins/awstats/hooks/cgi-bin/awstats_updateall.pl now -awstatsprog=/usr/local/directadmin/plugins/awstats/hooks/cgi-bin/awstats.pl
Error: Can't find AWStats program ('/usr/local/directadmin/plugins/awstats/hooks/cgi-bin/awstats.pl').
Use -awstatsprog option to solve this.
