Updating from older versions
This page lists those commands which existed in older versions of analog, but
which have been changed or abolished in this version. The new features in this
version are listed on the page What's new in
this version?.
Upgrading from 2.11 and earlier
- Approximate host counting has been abolished, unless there's a
significant demand for it.
- The Error Report has been abolished. See the
What's new? page.
- The HASHSIZE commands have been abolished: analog now chooses
the size of the hash tables itself.
- The MINREQS and similar options have been replaced by the
FLOOR commands.
- Only one * is now allowed on the left-hand side of aliases,
to avoid ambiguities.
- Automatic detection of log type is now on a per-file rather than a
per-line basis.
- If you used to use REFEXCLUDE, you most likely now want
REFREPEXCLUDE instead.
- ISPAGE is now called PAGEINCLUDE.
- MONTHLYBACK is now called MONTHBACK, and
MONTHLYUNIT is now called MONTHUNIT (and the same
for the other time reports).
- FULLHOSTS is now just called HOST.
- LASTSEVEN is abolished.
- LOGOURL is now called LOGO, and is assumed to be
within the IMAGEDIR.
- The UNIT commands have been abolished. They weren't very
useful, and they didn't make much sense with the different ways of
displaying the time report bar charts. The unit is now always chosen
automatically.
- DIRLEVEL has been abolished, because the
SUBDIR command is more general.
Use SUBDIR */* or whatever instead.
- Comments aren't allowed in the domains file.
I don't think this should cause a problem.
- BASEURL is abolished. Use the second argument to the
LOGFILE command instead.
- GRAPHICAL is abolished. Instead, use lower case letters with
the GRAPH commands.
- NUMLOOKUP has been replaced by
DNS, and DNSFRESHHOURS
by the commands DNSGOODHOURS and
DNSBADHOURS.
- - as a synonym for none has been abolished in some
places, e.g., HOSTURL.
- The following command line arguments have been abolished from earlier
versions, many of the letters getting new meanings: 7,
l, n, p, s, u,
v, w. (-v has moved to
-settings.) Others have been changed since version 1.2 as
well.
Upgrading from 2.0, Win32 users
- Filenames for logfiles etc. should now be given DOS-style, with
backslashes, rather than Unix-style with forward slashes.
Upgrading from 1.92 and earlier, Mac users
- There is no longer an automatic progress report. Use the
PROGRESSFREQ command instead.
Upgrading from 1.9beta's
Upgrading from 1.2's and earlier
- Use *INCLUDE and
*EXCLUDE instead of *ONLY and
*IGNORE.
- The syntax of the *FLOOR commands has changed.
- Use *SORTBY REQUESTS or BYTES instead of
*SORTBY BYREQUESTS or BYBYTES.
