How to remove password from domain’s web statistics page in Plesk

Question

How to remove password from domain's web statistics page (AWstat or Webalizer) and restore it after?

Answer

By default, web statistics page protected with a login and password of the system user of a subscription.

Password protection for web statistics page can be removed as follows:

1. Go to Domains > example.com > Hosting settings page
2. Untick checkbox for Protect access to your web statistics with your FTP username and password checkbox.
3. If the issue persists, connect to the server via SSH and run:

   # plesk repair web example.com

Note: Be careful, if a domain configured with additional users under Domains > example.com > Password-Protected Directories unsetting of Web statistics (Protect access to your web statistics with your FTP username and password) checkbox for the directory where web statistics are stored, will flush these settings.
