Getstats 3.0 Read Commands

read <filetype> <filename>

The filetype should be std for standard log files. More information about our extensions to the standard log format can be found in our Access Log Format Description. The filetype 1.0 can be used for reading the old logs that were created by NCSA HTTPD 1.0 during 1994 and 1995.

The filename is the log file you want to read. If the filename ends in ".gz" it will automatically be uncompressed using gunzip.

You must set defaulthost and domroot before using the read command. You can also set dtrlevels and domlevels to specify how much information to keep in memory. You can set xtroot if you want extract files.

For example:

set defaulthost www.columbia.edu
set domroot www.columbia.edu /www/data/httpd/reports/columbia/dom
set dtrlevels 6
set domlevels 2
set countbytes yes
