This page will show you what commands you need to run after one-click install of vnStat
First, open up terminal and login as root:
su - root
At this time the commands have to be run in root. Sorry for any inconvinence
After you have done that, do the following commands in order:
Creates the /var/lib/vnstat/eth0 file with root:root:
vnstat -i eth0 -u
chown vnstat:vnstat /var/lib/vnstat/*eth0
Creates the /var/lib/vnstat/.eth0 file:
vnstat -i eth0 -u
chown vnstat:vnstat /var/lib/vnstat/*eth0
