I copied all the files to the right directory, then edited the conf file for domain, where the data files are to be stored (including uploading the old ones), etc.
Then I used the following location for the log files (also making sure permissions was set to 777)
/home/useraccount/access-logs/domainnamelog
When I go to
www. domain. co.uk/cgi-bin/awstats.pl (or
www.domain.co.uk.cgi-bin/awstats.pl?config=model as in the userguide) I just get a 505 error.
