    Hi, apologies in advance if this is the wrong forum, it just seemed to be the best choice to me.

    I'm using dreamhost, and am trying to install AWStats.

    I have no experience with Perl, but I do fine until I get to this step:

    In the awstats/cgi-bin/ folder, copy awstats.model.conf to awstats.domainname.com.conf, where "domainname.com" is actually your website domain.


    I don't have an awstats.domainname.com.conf file anywhere. I have the awstats.model.conf, but that's the only .conf file I have.

    If anybody can help I'd be very grateful. Thanks :)

    Hi,

    They mean that you have to edit awstats.model.conf and to rename the modified file in awstats.domainname.com.conf where domainname.com is the domain name of your site.

    A few lines you probably need to edit in your AWStats config file are:
    - LogFile
    - LogFormat
    - SiteDomain
    - HostAliases

    Thanks Jean-Luc. I've done that, but then the file doesn't have any of the LogFile, etc, info which has to be changed. I'll try looking for it without the "find" function. Thanks again :)
