    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.

Resolved awstats not updating since update

Hi,

Since the update, awstats did not update and this month gives a 404 Error (the update was on Oct 26). When I do a manual forced update for one domain, it gives this error. I tried to remove awstats and install it again, but with the same issue. When I choose webalizer for the domain, the stats get updated correctly without errors.

With command

make sure that awstats was installed from Plesk but not from any other third-party repository.

I removed it through the Plesk installer and installed it again, but same errors show up. I have it on the 2 Plesk servers I have...

I saw that the "tools" dir does not exist and all the .pl fiiles are just in /usr/share/awstats but creating the tools directory and copying them into that dir doesn't fix it completely:

I just seem to have "fixed" it:

- I created the "tools" directory manually and put the .pl files in there (copied)
- In psa.conf, the "AWSTATS_BIN_D" directive was wrong. The 'awstats.pl' file is in /var/www/cgi-bin/awstats now, the variable was set on /usr/share/awstats/cgi-bin or something.

Changed that, and it works now.

This sure

Does anyone have a simple fix for this AwStats not working in Plesk 17.8.11 - stopped working about 6 months ago! And just need a simple fix to get it going. If there is one! Thanks in advance.
