installing perl script

[alteisenriese]

Hey, is there anyone who can help me install this script dailystats-3.0.tgz?

I have chmodded the files to 755 and also added the include path code to use the perl module just like the instruction on cpanel but i still got 500 error. Please tell me if i did it wrong. Thanks.

If you'll add this to the script that gets executed, it will create an error.txt file with the errors.

 

BEGIN { 
use CGI::Carp qw(carpout); 
use diagnostics;
open(LOG, ">errors.txt"); 
carpout(LOG);
close(LOG);
}

can i access the apache logs?

[Byron]

The only other log file you can access would be the Error log file at your cpanel. Did you try that code I posted to you? It will give you a better explanation of your errors than your Error log file.

Does that mean i cant use the apache logs? I guess this script using apache log to create statistic reports, so if i cant access it, its not worth trying.

 

And yeah i did try it, but since i dont know anything about perl i cant understand how to fix it. If you dont mind please tell me what to do considering the errors. Here is the error log http://antisocialnetworking.co.cc/stats/da...tats/errors.txt

"my" variable $bytes masks earlier declaration in same scope at dslogs.pl line
    180 (#1)
    (W misc) A "my" or "our" variable has been redeclared in the current
    scope or statement, effectively eliminating all access to the previous
    instance.  This is almost always a typographical error.  Note that the
    earlier variable will still exist until the end of the scope or until
    all closure referents to it are destroyed.

Maybe you should try looking at line 180.
