Getting Awstats to work

[Leonx]

Anyway I had awstats working fine on my previous zpanel install.. ie <domain>/awstats/awstat.pl

However I cannot get it working now, it was setup so long back I don't even know what setup procedure I did.. however just trying to follow this guide here http://computers.in4mnation.com/install-...u-apache2/ even this http://blogging.dragon.org.uk/installing...14-04-lts/

aside from a few issues like "Either all Options must start with + or -, or no Option may."

that were fixed, when I try to goto "<domain>/awstats/awstat.pl" I get

"Error 403 - Access Forbidden

You are not authorised to view this page or directory....

This may be due to the following reasons:-

The web server is setup to disable directory listings.
You supplied an incorrect user/password when attempting to browse this area.
If you believe you are getting this error message by mistake, please contact the website administrator."

Anyone got this working.. perl/cgi work with sentora ?

The built in webazlier is junk and implemention is partly broken would rather just disable and use something better for apache logs.

CGI/Perl was never secure with ZPanel and has thus been disabled on Sentora. The panel requires some reworking for proper (secure) CGI/Perl support to be added back in.

so basically the changes in sentora, mean awstats like how I had it before isn't even possible?

No unless you want an unsecure server!

We care for esecurity & this is how we disable it until we fix it the right way.

How to get it working is what I want to know...

Interesting, I scanned through their site and do not find anything about perl or CGI being required.

To run Piwik your host needs a couple of things:

• Webserver such as Apache, Nginx, IIS, etc.
  
• PHP version 5.3.3 or greater
  
• MySQL version 4.1 or greater
  
• (enabled by default) PHP extension pdo and pdo_mysql, or the mysqli extension.

What? this thread is about getting Awstats working... its a test environment so I really don't care about the security stuff I'm sure there are a dozen security flaws without perl or cgi being nerfed out of sentora to be or already exploited on webservers.

Anyway this is the other thread http://forums.sentora.org/showthread.php?tid=740 .. where I can't get Piwik working.
