Awstats missing and not working

Submitted by steve@itgroup.net.au on Tue, 12/01/2015 - 18:54 Pro Licensee

Hi, I tried to run a awstats report and it failed - Error -Missing headers. I followed all the google advise and checked paths in the configuration of awstats and all were correct. restarted server, still no good. So, i figured to uninstall awstats and reinstall - which I did. NOW... in features and plugins - there is NO awstats ! How do I get it back please? Need to run some urgent reports !

Status: 
Closed (fixed)

Howdy -- is the Virtualmin awstats program installed? If that isn't installed, it won't show up in the Features and Plugins section.

If it's not installed, you can install it with this command:

yum install wbm-virtualmin-awstats

thanks - that was missing - have installed and it is back. However, the Error - Missing Headers is still there when I try to run any of the reports. I have check the paths in the awstats config and they all check out?

I have been right through the awstats settings, but cannot get beyond that error message. Can you please advise what I can try now?

What awstats package do you have installed? You can determine that with this command:

rpm -qa | grep awstats

Also what is the path to awstats?

You can determine that with this command:

find / -name awstats.pl

Lastly, what is the output of this command:

cat /etc/webmin/virtualmin-awstats/config

Hi, thanks for the reply:

Hmm, try editing /etc/webmin/virtualmin-awstats/config, and there, set the 'awstats=' line to point to this path:

/usr/share/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl

After doing that, restart Webmin with this command:

/etc/init.d/webmin restart

Once you do that, are you able to generate your awstats reports?
