Typo in WOStatsPage.html in WO 5.3

There is a typo in WebObjects 5.3 that prevents the login from being displayed. To fix:


sudo emacs /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaWOExtensions.framework/Resources/WOStatsPage.wo/WOStatsPage.html

Edit this line:


<webobject name="USERname"></webobject>

to read


<webobject name="USERNAME"></webobject>

(it is a case issue).

Set a WOStats Password

Don't forget to set a password when launching using -WOStatisticsPassword foo
 If you don't set a password, access is disabled entirely.
