I think I will need Awstats for super dummies. I am sooo thankfull you made this list because at least it makes much more sense than the installation Instructions from Awstats.

Still, I have a few questions.

1)
On point 3 you say: Change the permissions of awstats.pl to 755. I opened that file with a text editor but don’t know what I need to change to 755?

2)
On point 5 you say “Create your own config file” but where should i save this file? which folder?

Thank you sooo much!

Question moved to our forum about Apache and AWStats, Installation and Configuration: AWStats for dummies.

Hi Jean-Luc, Yes I did the chmod and that is where I thought it should be but I am still getting the 500 error. Thanks for the thoughts. Question moved to our AWStats forum: 500 errors.

Hi Colin, Did you change the permissions of awstats.pl to 755 as stated in paragraph 3 ? The .conf file must be in the same directory as awstats.pl.
