Cache files don't include the information necessary to give 7 day totals - the reason cache files are small is because the links between a specific request and when it was requested aren't there any more. But in this case, because you have data from "real" log files, you will get 7-day informtion, but only if the requests occurred in th last 7 days. Data from the 16th and 17th of January doesn't. It's actually the 7 days before a TO command - you don't have one, so it defaults to "now". You can get the information for the 2 days of "real" logs by putting "TO 060118:0000" in your config. (This is true for the "last 7 days" numbers in the General summary - I don't actually know if it also applies to sorting and setting floors by the last 7 days, but I assume it does). > This means that host/failed ref/ref/search query/search > word/browser/OS/status code/file size/file type/dir/fail/req reports > are all useless really (since sort everything by 7-day). > > cfg file is located at : http://www.seanos.net/analog.cfg > (largish - so didn't wish to mail). > > I have read about exclude's & alias' - however because run the log > stats for someone elses site - can't exclude stuff, as what they wish > to see/know changes. > Same goes for Alias. > > Any ideas/suggestions in regards to this would be most helpful & > appriciated. You may need to split your report in two - for example, turn off the host and domain report in your main run, to free up the memory they take up, and then run a second report with everything turned off except those reports. How long does Analog take to generate the reports?
