Hello,
I've been running Analog for a few months now and I came across a funny
thing showing up in the report. Analog analyzes all data in the Apache
log, including file size. The last analasys is from 17-03-2005 to
26-05-2005 (70 days). And that makes it even more obvious that something
is not right.
The statistics of this morning said the total data transferred was 4.01
Gigabytes. However when I checked the page again in the evening, it
suddenly said 1.18 Gigabytes. Then I started figuring and calculating, and
I figured that it crosses the 4GB data transferred 2 times per month. Why
does analog "reset" the counter after 4GB of data? is it unable to
calculate any further?
How can I fix this problem? or is it a bug?
I run Analog 6.0 on Windows 2000AS on the Apache logs.
Plausible guess, but in fact wrong. There is no such limit. (The number of
bytes is stored in a double, not an unsigned long). You can try it out with
this logfile:
statslab.cam.ac.uk - - [31/Dec/1999:10:11:12 +0000] "GET /sample.html
HTTP/1.0" 200 3234000000 "http://referrer.com/" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible;
MSIE 4.01; Windows 98)"
statslab.cam.ac.uk - - [31/Dec/1999:11:11:12 +0000] "GET /sample.html
HTTP/1.0" 200 3234000000 "http://referrer.com/" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible;
MSIE 4.01; Windows 98)"
You should see 6.02 GB transferred.
So what is going wrong? Maybe your logs are being rotated, so you're losing
some old logs from the analysis periodically?
