MGA8-64 MATE on Acer Aspire 5253 No installation issues. Looked at bugs 22275 and 7520, but as this doesnt't have a real site, I devised another way to get something into the logs. After installation (and httpd running) # /usr/share/awstats/www/awstats.pl -config=awstats.conf -update Create/Update database for config "/etc/awstats/awstats.conf" by AWStats version 7.8 (build 20200416) From data in log file "/var/log/httpd/access_log"... Phase 1 : First bypass old records, searching new record... Searching new records from beginning of log file... Jumped lines in file: 0 Parsed lines in file: 0 Found 0 dropped records, Found 0 comments, Found 0 blank records, Found 0 corrupted records, Found 0 old records, Found 0 new qualified records. Then started mysqld, started phpmyadmin, logged in, rummaged a bit around in the mysql configurations I have, logged out and then # /usr/share/awstats/www/awstats.pl -config=awstats.conf -update Create/Update database for config "/etc/awstats/awstats.conf" by AWStats version 7.8 (build 20200416) From data in log file "/var/log/httpd/access_log"... Phase 1 : First bypass old records, searching new record... Searching new records from beginning of log file... Phase 2 : Now process new records (Flush history on disk after 20000 hosts)... Jumped lines in file: 0 Parsed lines in file: 112 Found 0 dropped records, Found 0 comments, Found 0 blank records, Found 0 corrupted records, Found 0 old records, Found 112 new qualified records. I will not claim I fully understand all this, but there is some logic. OK for me.

I don't understand any of it, Herman, but it doesn't look to me like something that failed. Validating. Advisory in comment 2.
