As you'll see, that message is almost an exact duplicate from the install guide from awstats, reference: http://awstats.sourceforge.net/docs/awstats_setup.html while I don't agree with the method totally, I have done this due to a huge volume of email asking for help setting up awstats. Most people that were asking for support had or would read the install guide if pointed in that direction, however the old port layout would never have worked in this way. The only deviation from the authors, is the local file system path, and that's only because it's not a good idea to install to /usr/local, and there was no purpose to the wwwroot, except for nesting even further in our setup. I don't read a problem here, I assume this is a cosmetic fix request, if there is a problem please give me details of it, and I'll look into it. > ***************************************************************** > Please add the following to your apache config, and restart. > > # > # Directives to allow use of AWStats as a CGI > # > Alias /awstats/classes "/usr/local/www/awstats/classes/" > Alias /awstats/css "/usr/local/www/awstats/css/" > Alias /awstats/icons "/usr/local/www/awstats/icons/" > ScriptAlias /awstats/ "/usr/local/www/awstats/cgi-bin/" > > # > # This is to permit URL access to scripts/files in AWStats directory. > # > > Options None > AllowOverride None > Order allow,deny > Allow from all > > > **************************************************************** Chris.
