Webalizer from URL

[partsace]

I am trying to get stats from a URL without having a customer log in every time. (I will may it password protected, so don't jump on me about that!)

Here is what I did:

1. cd /home/username/www or cd /home/username/public_html
2. ln -s ../tmp/webalizer stats
3. chown username.username stats
4. cd ../tmp
5. chmod 755 ./
6. chmod 755 ./webalizer

I did both on #1, but the one that showed any sign of life is the public_html

I am now getting a 403 Forbidden error when trying to go to website.com/stats/

Has webalizer been updated to the point that I can no longer do this or what am I missing?

Hello

Granting public access your statistics is not supported, but you should be able to view the specific error message in /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log when attempting to access the URL in your browser.

Thank you.

That got me close to find a solution... cPanel may not support it, but it does not mean that someone else may want to know how to find a solution to this request. So, here you go:

To make it so you can see the stats from a URL you need to log into WHM, head to Service Configuration --> Apache Configuration --> Directory "/" Options [?] and uncheck "SymLinksIfOwnerMatch".
