Firestats is not an joomla component but a seperate system with its own mysql database,
so you have to install firestats in the root and create a database for it,
"it were not so easy so i share my way to do it :)"
Guide: Start
download the automatic installer, unpack it and upload the firestats-installer folder to your site root (normally the same place as your joomla files.
make installer-config.php and the directory temp inside firestats-installer writable 755
type yoursite.com/firestats-installer
it starts the installer and asks for install pass word, you can use anyone you like
step one: Enter directory
click [check directory]
i will show the path copy the string (its the same string to use in module)
eg /home/user12345/public_html/firestats
step two: Obtain archive
select obtain from internet and click [get latest version] wati til finisjed and click [install/upgrade]
the install is Done.
now you have to create the mysqltables
you still need to get FireStats to create the tables inside your MySQL database.
to do this, simply access FireStats with your browser (usually something like http://your-server.com/firestats), and follow the on-screen instructions.
You should know your MySQL host name, username password and database name in advance.
Once you have FireStats installed into the database, go to the sites tab, add a site remember to select Joomla here
after its build you can see the firestats site id its the first number, [1] so now you got both the path and the number for the module.
guide: End
hope i have explained i right,
Download and lot more info on firestats site

Enjoy your new statistic tool.

Hi Hucks,
nice to describe how to install FireStats..
But as my module is using FireStats, it's a normal JOOMLA module with the default installation
