Some quick help with Awstats...

[simplejimmie]

I want to check my websites stats using Awstats but when i click on the awstats link on Web/Ftp Statistics page of my cPanelX it gives me the following error:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Error: Couldn't open config file "awstats.stpaultherock.com.conf" nor "awstats.conf" after searching in path ".,/home/stpaulth/tmp/awstats/,/etc/opt/awstats,/etc/awstats,/etc,/usr/local/etc/awstats": No such file or directory

- Did you use the correct URL ?
Example: http://localhost/awstats/awstats.pl?config=mysite
Example: http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/awstats.pl?config=mysite
- Did you create your config file 'awstats.stpaultherock.com.conf' ?
If not, you can run "./../../tools/awstats_configure.pl" from command line, or create it manually.

Check config file, permissions and AWStats documentation (in 'docs' directory).

If someone could tell me why this is happening I would greatly appreciate it.

Did you enable awstats from the stats manager? You'll find it after clicking on the web/ftp stats on the cpanel. It's the first option on the stats page.

Once you enable it, it'll take time to gather the stats. 24 hours I think it says.
