[root@localhost cgi-bin]#./awstats.pl -update -config=123
Error: AWStats database directory defined in config file by 'DirData' parameter (./data) does not exist or is not writable.
Check config file, permissions and AWStats documentation (in 'docs' directory).

这个问题应该是无法找到AWStats分析日志后写分析文件的目录导致的，我的情况是./data目录在cgi-bin目录下已经存在，并且权限也没有任何问题，可以读写，但是仍然提示错误，一时间内问题无法找到，最后发现了定义DirData变量的文件awstats.myConf.conf，在此文件中，指定了DirData的路径，默认是./data，为了安全其间，我直接写了data目录的绝对路径，然后继续执行更新操作，问题解决。
