* saves its database and working files into.
*/
$DirData = "/var/lib/awstats";

/**

$AWStatsURL = "/cgi-bin/awstats.pl";

$DirLang = "/usr/share/awstats/lang";

/**

*/
$FilterConfigs = array();

/*
To read website configs from database, do something like:
$sql = "SELECT config FROM users WHERE (user=...)";
$rs = mysql_query($sql); if ($rs) while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($rs)) $FilterConfigs[] = $row["config"];
*/

Rajio,

 

I am not sure but I will look into it and see if I can find what the proper location is for you. Hang tight a bit longer.

>$DirData = "/home/cpanel_username/tmp/awstats";

$AWStatsURL = "http://www.******:2082/awstats.pl";

$DirLang = "/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/share/awstats/lang";

 

But this script looks like it doesn't take into account that the cPanel inatall of AwStats requires a password.

And out of curiosity why do you want to make your stats public?

[Rajio]

thanks dick i'll try that out.

 

Reason i want to fiddle with showing the stats with this is that I want to be able to incorporate the stats into my site so that on a page that only my blog contributors can access (i'm using mambo btw) i can throw on some stats like unique hits per day / week / month, and latest refering URLs, but have that integrated into the website template ratehr than a page that looks totaly different (ie all white). since awstats is already installed and collecting this info i figured if i could port over some of that info into a "publicly available" page (ie without backend access) which i could customize into my site to be seamless, it'd be just what the doctor ordered.

Have at a look a this script, It might not be what you want but it works.

Awstats Access

I've tried to get this script working without success, all I get is "Could not open directory /home/syqbsbxa/tmp/awstats" which sounds like its cause it need a password like Dick said.

 

But it would be great if it was possible to get it working, cause then I could view the main stats of all of my accounts on the same page and compare them. Will it take much work to make it take a password?

for it to work take out the

"cpanel_";

"cpanel_"; and then just fill the correct information where it says username and password.

You are looking at the wrong script, the one you reference (Awstats Access) has no problems. I have removed the underscore from "cpanel_username" to prevent any future confusion.

The script they had an issue with is from the first post in this thread

That script is for a standalone install of AWstats and does not contain the proper directories or credentials to access AWstats via cPanel.

Ah I understand now. Sorry, I was working with both scripts so I miss read which one he was having trouble with.

 

Thanks for the clarification though.
