Thegolden1 Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I tried inserting the pre-install cgi counter script on my site, after copying and pasting the counter html code. I still cant get the counter and when i preview it, i get a message like this; "counter datafile '/var/cpanel/counters/my%20counter.dat' must be created in cpanel first!" i dont know what the problem is. Any help will be appriciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Byron Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 That looks like a file that is supposed to be created by the cpanel and only djbob can fix it. You can make your own counters with php or cgi/perl. Just do a google search for counter scripts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Byron Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I just made a counter and it seems to be working ok. Try to make another counter for your site and give it a name without a space in it. I think you named yours "my counter" and the cpanel tried to create a data file with %20 in the name (my%20counter.dat) and it can't create a file with %20. Name it "mycounter" and copy the new code and see if it works. Here's my test page. http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/counter_test.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
