Package: awstats Version: 6.7.dfsg-5.1 Severity: normal uff... costed me quite a few minutes to figure out what was the issue.
I was trying to config multi-site setup to generate static pages. When I followed instructions and created /etc/awstats/awstats.custom.conf and then ran awstats.pl -config=custom, it didn't spit out any warning/error but said that it read /etc/awstats/awstats.conf and /etc/awstats/awstats.conf.local and nothing about custom. Even in debug=1 no error of any kind was reported... the issue was -- file was there, BUT with permissions disallowing for the user I was executing awstats.pl to read it... So, reasonable software, provided a specific configuration file should puke an error and fail if it fails to read that file -- not just "go on" without any mentioining of a problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages awstats depends on: ii perl [libtime-hires-perl 5.10.0-19lenny2 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages awstats recommends: ii libnet-xwhois-perl 0.90-3 Whois Client Interface for Perl5 Versions of packages awstats suggests: ii apache2-mpm-prefork [htt 2.2.9-10+lenny6 Apache HTTP Server - traditional n pn libgeo-ipfree-perl <none> (no description available) ii libnet-dns-perl 0.63-2 Perform DNS queries from a Perl sc ii libnet-ip-perl 1.25-2 Perl extension for manipulating IP -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
