Awstats

[sabvr]

Hi
Since upgrading to 2.4, my stats are sporadic, in the sense, usually it will measure the correct numbers, but sometimes, it will say just 2 users have been on my site on the day, when it is infact a very active website with constant users on my phpbb forums, does anyone else have the same problems, it seems as if the log files are not writing correctly.
Thanks

sabvr,

Check you logs manually. Do they contain the usual amount of information or are they referring to two users/IPs?

All the data in the logs seem fine, yet AWstats brings this out:

and yet when I look at 14th Feb, whid reports only 2 visits, I can actually see the usual 200+ there

You may need to force AWStats to update its Log information. There's a feature with it that allows you to force AWStats to the most recent log.

[sabvr]

do you mean the "update now" button on the browser, I have done that, thus why some days it shows the correct number, other times it does not.

Granted this happened after the 2.4 release, but it could be a problem with Awstats, do you or anyone have any advice on other webstats software that can run on XP with Abyss.

Apart from that, the problem from 6 months ago of lots of PHP scripts running has disappeared with 2.4.

Upgrade charges with Abyss are worth every penny :-)

I'm not really sure why this is happening. AWStats should work fine with any version of Abyss Web Server. Which interface Are you using? CGI, FastCGI, or ISAPI?

[sabvr]

FastCGI

[TRUSTAbyss]

What type of FastCGI are you using? Is it (Local - TCP/IP sockets) or (Local - Pipes)? I know these are weird questions. You might want to try using CGI instead to see if the problem fixes.

[sabvr]

good question and I cant remeber how to see that again, can you let me know where to look.

Thanks!!

[TRUSTAbyss]

Go to the Host Configuration you installed AWStats on, and click on "Scripting Parameters", now go to the Perl Interpreter settings and edit the FastCGI by changing it to CGI/ISAPI.
