When the visits log is disabled globally or in website setting, loading reports for a period that has not yet been archived (without browser trigger), might currently show the error "Visits log is deactivated in website settings..."
The problem seems to be that the raw data check might try to perform a request to Live.getLastVisitsDetails
in https://github.com/matomo-org/matomo/blob/6ab9923d6324c3d98765881e525d7ecf8ba9d831/plugins/CoreHome/vue/src/ReportingPage/ReportingPage.vue#L275-L279
That method is not available with deactivated visit log.
We should check if we can use or create another API method that provides the needed information, or maybe avoid the call completely if it doesn't make sense in that case.
