Hi All, I have recently set-up a new LEMP on Ubuntu 11.10 (64-bit), it is a pretty simple set-up and all is running fine. That is until I try to get Awstats working. I have diligently followed the Awstats set up outlined at > **[Expedited Security: Straightforward Cloud Services to Protect Your Sites](https://expeditedsecurity.com)** > > Expedited Security provides straightforward security services for Heroku, AWS and Google Cloud However, when I enter the URL in a browser I get page not found (404 error). This is the URL I am entering [http://mydomain.com/cgi-bin/awstats.pl](http://mydomain.com/cgi-bin/awstats.pl) I have been working at this for a few days now, but being totally new to Linux…I’m afraid that I don’t know enough to ask the right questions (or intelligent questions). Incidently I am having the exact same 404 message when trying to enter the URL for phpMyAdmin… Can someone please take the time to help me out??

Aleks Thanks for replying… I am looking at the error log and it is blank, let me check to see the problem with the log. I will get back to you on this and then try to config the debug output.

BINGO! Got the error.log working and I found something! (But don’t know how to fix it) This is what I found… 2011/12/28 20:20:51 [error] 19200#0: \*9 FastCGI sent in stderr: “PHP Notice: Undefined index: X\_SCRIPT\_FILENAME in /etc/nginx/cgi-bin.php on line 9 PHP Notice: Undefined index: X\_SCRIPT\_NAME in /etc/nginx/cgi-bin.php on line 10 PHP Notice: Undefined index: X\_SCRIPT\_FILENAME in /etc/nginx/cgi-bin.php on line 12” while reading response header from upstream, client: 11.11.1.111, server: [mydomain.com](http://mydomain.com), request: “GET /cgi-bin/awstats.pl HTTP/1.1”, upstream: “fastcgi://127.0.0.1:49232”, host: “[mydomain.com](http://mydomain.com)” Posted at Nginx Forum: > **[Re: Awstats and NGinX](https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,220628,220638#msg-220638)** > > Hi All, I have recently set-up a new LEMP on Ubuntu 11.10 (64-bit), it is a pretty simple set-up and all is running fine.

Finally!!! I have Awstats working!!! The undefined fastcgi parameter is a result of using ENV in the cgi-bin.php So I replaced ENV with SERVER and it works!!! So with Ubuntu 11.10 (64-bit), Awstats, and Nginx 1.05 the cgi-bin.php looks like this (where it now reads $\_SERVER…it used to read $ENV): \ array("pipe", "r"), //stdin is a pipe that the child will read from 1 =\> array("pipe", "w"), //stdout is a pipe that the child will write to 2 =\> array("pipe", "w"), //stderr is a file to write to ); $newenv = $\_SERVER; $newenv["SCRIPT\_FILENAME"] = $\_SERVER["X\_SCRIPT\_FILENAME"]; $newenv["SCRIPT\_NAME"] = $\_SERVER["X\_SCRIPT\_NAME"]; if (is\_executable ($\_SERVER["X\_SCRIPT\_FILENAME"])) { $process = proc\_open($\_SERVER["X\_SCRIPT\_FILENAME"], $descriptorspec, $pipes, NULL, $newenv); if (is\_resource($process)) { fclose($pipes[0]); $head = fgets($pipes[1]); while (strcmp($head, "\n")) { header($head); $head = fgets($pipes[1]); } fpassthru($pipes[1]); fclose($pipes[1]); fclose($pipes[2]); $return\_value = proc\_close($process); } else { header("Status: 500 Internal Server Error"); echo ("Internal Server Error"); }} else { header("Status: 404 Page Not Found"); echo("Page Not Found"); } ?\> Posted at Nginx Forum: > **[Re: Awstats and NGinX](https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,220628,220641#msg-220641)** > > Hi All, I have recently set-up a new LEMP on Ubuntu 11.10 (64-bit), it is a pretty simple set-up and all is running fine.

Alek, Thanks for your help…I haven’t fixed the problem but your input has highlighted the problem. Now I understand where this is happening (in the fastcgi parameters) and in what file. If I can discover why it is undefined then it looks like I’ll have the problem fixed. Another note: I think the debug output is on because when I stop nginx and start again…I have no errors, but before if I had an eror in my syntex it would tell me what and where. I’ll read up on the link you gave me, and post my results when I get the problem fixed. Thanks again for your help.
