Serlog Revision History

Version 3.0 (10/29/2009)
- Added support for analyzing log files that are located inside of a compressed .ZIP file.
- Added the "Graph Appearance" setting to the Settings folder.  In addition to rendering a graph data as a series of connected lines, it can now be rendered as a bar graph or a 3D ribbon.
- Added to the "Download Logs" tool a window that displays the log files that will be downloaded.  The user may then exclude certain files from downloading.
- Added to the "Referrers" table a new column that contains the conversions per referral.
- Added to the "Entry/Exit" tables a new column that contains the number of conversions.
- Added to the help file a description of each statistic on the Summary Report.
- Added detection of Window 7.
- Added detection of the iPhone browser.  Improved detection of the Safari browser.  Gecko is no longer treated as a browser - it is a rendering engine used by various browsers.
- Added the "One Instance Only" option to the Options menu.
- Added the "Copy Domain" tool to the context menu of the Referrers table.
- When a file is requested in multiple parts, it now only counts as one hit.
- Most System-G icons have been replaced or improved.
- The Referrers report will now produce the correct conversion stats when a file filter is employed.  Previously, the file filter had no effect on the conversion stats.
- The "Download Logs" tool now reports the total bytes downloaded and the download speed.
- The "Analyze Logs" button is now an icon.
- The hotkey for the "Download Logs" tool is now F8.
- The command line switch to generate a document has changed from "/d" to "/g".
- The installer now adds a Windows Firewall exception for Serlog.
- The "Most/Least active day of week" stats are now hidden if less than 7 days of logs are analyzed.
- Fixed: the Log Format group should no longer display a scrollbar when the window is too short to display all controls.
- Fixed: an unusual scenario where two log files that have the exact same timestamp could interfere with the "Exclude Most Recent Log" feature.  The alphabetical order of the log filenames is now used as a tie-breaker.
- Fixed: possible crash if the user clicks on a graph twice in less than 1/10 of a second.
- Fixed: possible crash if an FTP download fails.


Version 2.0 (7/23/2009)
- Added the "Download Logs" tool.
- Added the "/d" command-line switch for generating a document.

- Added to the "Domain" field the ability to specify multiple domains, separated by commas.
- Added the "Analyze Logs" button in the center of the report area if an analysis has not yet been performed.
- If "#Fields:" appears more than once in a log file, the new log format is now auto-detected and obeyed.  This occurs when the settings for IIS are changed.
- The help file now describes how to force IIS to log all the data needed by Serlog.
- The graph line data is slightly thicker.
- Minor changes to spider detection.
- The "Page views per session/visitor" stats now have 2 digits after the decimal point.
- Fixed: percentage columns will no longer contain "-1.$%" when the total is 0.
