Thanks again Stuart,
Problem being I overwrote those old html files trying to get it going.
Oh well.

Hi Brett,
I've not double-checked the behaviour recently, but I think the old
reports (.html) files stay, so you can see older stats, but newer stats
only contain data from the past few months rather than back to the
inception of your installation.
Thanks,

Thankyou Stuart,
Just to confirm, if what you say is happening all older stats
other than what is being displayed have been lost.
Regards,
Hamish

I am attempting to reconfigure our statistics. However
when I run the required scripts I am not getting any stats older than 2
months ago.
When I look in the .dat files in /dspace/log that have
been generated they are almost except for the last 2 months empty even
though a lot has occured for the last 3 years.
I am pretty sure I have all the log files.
I have only changed the date in the dstat.cfg file.
An example of an empty dat file is below.
Any advice for me
I suspect what is happening is that your dspace.log.* files have
rolled over their limit. In [dspace]/config/log4j.properties you can
specify how many log files to keep, and how big each one can be before
it rolls over. The default configuration is quite small (100 files at
1Mb each). So it sounds like you are getting through that many log files
each 2 months.
The problem with the stats module as it stands, is that despite
creating .dat files for log files which have now rolled over and been
lost, it recreates them all each time. This means you lose all the older
stats.
The easy short-term solution is to increase the size and/or
number of log files that DSpace creates.
The better solution would be for someone to look at making sure
current .dat files are not overwritten by the stats system. However...
the stat system is getting a complete rewrite in the upcoming 1.6
release, so a lot of people are waiting for that instead.
I hope this helps,
