AWStats: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
From FVue
Problem
I upgraded from Debian 3.1 (Sarge) to Debian 4 (Etch). Now running awstats.pl gives me this error:
sh: /usr/share/doc/awstats/examples/logresolvemerge.pl: /usr/bin/perl^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
Phase 1 : First bypass old records, searching new record...
Searching new records from beginning of log file...
Error: Command for pipe '/usr/share/doc/awstats/examples/logresolvemerge.pl /home/freddy/proj/fvue/log/apache/new~/* |' failed
Setup ('./awstats.www.fvue.nl.conf' file, web server or permissions) may be wrong.
Check config file, permissions and AWStats documentation (in 'docs' directory).
Environment
- Debian 4.0
- awstats 6.5 (build 1.857)
Solution
Change LogFile setting in file awstats.conf to contain perl:
LogFile="/usr/share/doc/awstats/examples/logresolvemerge.pl logfile |" # Wrong LogFile="perl /usr/share/doc/awstats/examples/logresolvemerge.pl logfile |" # Good

Why can't perl be found?
$> which perl /usr/bin/perl $> ls -l /usr/bin/perl -rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1061700 2006-12-07 00:30 /usr/bin/perl
