Uninstalling the DA-based awstats solution for using "again" the plugins

[albatroz]

After extensive testing and reading I have noticed the awstats implementation
in Directadmin is not as good as the older ones based on plugins not to mention
Cpanels one.

So I was wondering what is the procedure for uninstalling the DA-based awstats
solution so I can use the older plugins solution.

What's wrong with the current implementation? It's better to solve them rather than switching over. This way everyone benefits from it.

From what I understand is the current DA implementation updates at the end of the day with no option for the user to update from the browser manually. You can use awstats OR webalizer but not both.

The plugin seemed to be a lot more flexible and that is why I still use it.

Also, there is no way for importing data of other installations.

I ordered a VPS with the new DA implementation, but I am thinking of cancelling it
and moving everything to an older one I have and the rest to Cpanel.

Yes, just copy your old awstats .txt files to /home/username/domains/domainname.com/awstats/.data/ on your directadmin server.

If the directory doesn't exsist yet, run:
/usr/local/directadmin/script/awstats_process.sh username domainname.com

Also, run the above script after you've copied your .txt files in the .data directory.

cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild

./build set awstats yes

./build awstats

echo 'action=tally&value=all' >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue
/usr/local/directadmin/dataskq d


will allow you to use awstats and webalizer
