Hi all

I'm trying to install awstats via the command line

after running

Code:

apt-get install awstats

, seems to install OK

when running the command

Code:

cp /etc/awstats/awstats.conf /etc/awstats/awstats.yourdomain.ext.conf

I get NO such directory or file

any idea to why

I'm logged in as root

system is Ubuntu 9.04 \n \l

after setting it up and freaking out on the weather ( cyclone )

I keep getting this message

Code:

/usr/lib/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=rockinghamgateway.com -update
Error: Could not open include file: /etc/awstats/awstats.conf.local
Setup ('/etc/awstats/awstats.rockinghamgateway.com.conf' file, web server or permissions) may be wrong.
Check config file, permissions and AWStats documentation (in 'docs' directory).

funny thing is I only see awstats.conf and not awstats.conf.local

I follows this link http://www.server-world.info/en/note...4&p=httpd&f=12

all seems to install OK, I even see the html report using vi

but when I try to access the index.html
I get, You don't have permission to access the requested directory. There is either no index document or the directory is read-protected. You don't have permission to access the requested object. It is either read-protected or not readable by the server.

I'm at a loss here, I cant seem to find a doc that explains the permissons, what am I doing wrong ?

I don't get it, is apache2 not reading the file ?

Any help please
