Awstats webserver analyser

Need assistance in troubleshooting

I have configured awstats 7.3 version on RedHat linux and I am stuck at getting the updates from the website . Please let me know if anybody can give me some inputs

I can see the webpages but it gives "Never updated (See 'Build/Update' on awstats_setup.html page)"

/local/tools/perl-5.18/bin/perl awstats.pl -config=awstats.webstats.conf -update
Create/Update database for config "./awstats.webstats.conf" by AWStats version 7.3 (build 20140126)
From data in log file "/local/tools/awstats-7.3/var/log/access.log"...
Phase 1 : First bypass old records, searching new record...
Searching new records from beginning of log file...

You are trying to process the apache log file, right? If yes, then the path to it ( /local/tools/awstats-7.3/var/log/access.log ) does not seem valid to me.

Possible solution: Edit the awstats.webstats.conf file and search for the LogFile directive and change it to �

LogFile="/var/log/apache2/access.log"

and try again.
Make sure it is really located there though, otherwise adapt it to the actual path.
