Warning: Invalid keyword "IncrementalName"

[KS]

I get this warning when running the webalizer I built after issue #12. I get several other keyword warnings because I use a config file that was used for awffull/webalizer and these are correct. I see from docs that these have been changed. However, IncrementalName seems to be valid.

IncrementalName has been removed for a long time. Even when it existed, it was there only for backward compatibility, so one could switch to Stone Steps Webalizer (SSW) in the middle of the month and it would continue with the new state database format.

Historically, the original Webalizer was using a text file webalizer.currentto maintain all aggregated data. I forked the Webalizer many years ago and at some point it became evident that parsing this file was quite expensive and, more importantly, having to load everything into memory to generate reports was proving problematic for larger log files. As a solution to these and other issues I switched the state database to a binary format based on Berkeley DB. For some time the original Webalizer wasn't updated and I kept the original state file reader, so people could switch mid-month, but when the text state file format was changed, I removed this option. Anyone switching to SSW should do this from the beginning of the month.

There should be a version at the top of README - check that it's the right version. There shouldn't be one in v4.3.2.

Oh, and another change in this area is that incremental processing has become the default processing mode and one would have to turn it off if you wanted a non-incremental mode.

I compared with the "sample.conf" that is in the source (using mainly that one as authoritative) and I used the README that's available here: http://www.stonesteps.ca/projects/webalizer/README.asp . Both contain IncrementalName. I did not look in the README of the source file. There it's missing, indeed. If I figure correctly, options in this area now start with Db...?

I forgot about this one. Thanks for pointing it out.

Yes. The state file now is webalizer.db by default.

Removed the link to an obsolete README
