 News

 20.11.2000: Analog 4.13 PL2 for OS.2 is released. 


 Whats this?

 Analog is freeware program which analyses logfiles from WWW servers. It works
 on almost any operating system (now on OS/2 Warp too!) and designed to be fast
 and to produce attractive statistics. 

 See readme docs in Analog/2 archive for more details. 


 Changes in KOT patch:

     PL1: 
     localization RUSSIAN_ALT is added. The reason - I believe that files on the
     disk should be stored in the code native for the operating system. 

     - option SET_CHARSET is added. When it is switched off analog does not
     write charset= to the generated html code. The reason - the Russian apache
     can recode documents to the necessary code page. As a result charset of the
     file on the disk and got by the user can differ. By default analog writes
     charset to the file which could lead to undesirable results. For instance, when
     using old versions of apache. 

     PL2: 
     lang/rualtdom.tab is created. Now when using LANG=RUSSIAN_ALT
     domain names will be written in Russian, as it should be when using LANG. 

     parameter of command line -c analog.config is added, where analog.config is
     the path to the configuration file analog. ATTENTION! When you use this
     option all the other parameters of the command line will be ignored. 

     option LANGDIR is added. It determines the catalog with localization. It is
     necessary when the path to the catalog differs from ../analog/lang/. Remember
     that at the end of the line should be present the separation symbol of the
     catalogs. 

     for using the program as CGI script it is enough to correct several lines in the
     configuration file. 

     the sources are located in the separate archive. 


 Installation

 Let us assume that analog will be used together with apache webserver having paths
 to the file that almost do not differ from standard. 

 Let us denote catalog with apache as $APACHEDIR. The file with ready report
 and necessary pictures will be located in $APACHEDIR/htdocs/analog. 

 For installation it is necessary to : 

   1.place analog.cfg and catalog lang to $APACHEDIR/analog. 
   2.When using analog in standalone regime . to place analog.exe to
     $APACHEDIR/analog, in CGI regime - to place cgi/analog.exe to
     $APACHEDIR/cgi-bin. 
   3.Catalog images place to $APACHEDIR/htdocs/analog, the location of the
     pictures can be changed by the variable IMAGEDIR in the configuration
     file. It will be indicated regarding DocumentRoot of the location of report
     /CGI-script. 
   4.Configure $APACHEDIR/analog/analog.cfg. It is desirable to indicate
     HOSTNAME and HOSTURL in that file. When using analog as CGI script -
     it is necessary to delete comments in the following lines: 

     OUTFILE stdout
     CGI on

 Now the is ready to work by default.
 The installation is over - analog is ready for use!
