Statistics for wwwchem.uwimona.edu.jm:1104
WUSAGE
Statistics on the
use of this Server.
This was the first web statistics package I tried and
so information is available from Sept 1994. However, since I originally erased
the log files after running the program each week, it has not been possible to
go back over the early logs and get a complete coverage of access information.
Full information is only available from February 1995.
WUSAGE 4, 5 and 6
Upgrades to
WUSAGE program. I have experimented with version 4, 5 and 6 for Unix and
4.11(2) for NT and redid all the old reports from what data I had stored. The
new features makes it much more user configurable and it looks very
professional.
Getstats and Analog
I started using Getstats in February 1995 and since
then have kept all the log files.
I had some problems getting it to compile
on the SUN ULTRA under Solaris 2.6 and since it is no longer supported I have
stopped using it and in future will be using Analog.
The yearly
statistics pages have been redone using Analog.

Analog (now vs 3.31) runs significantly faster and it is possible to run it
from a CGI script via a form without too
many bandwidth and timeout problems. Despite this, I will continue to run the stats on a
weekly basis as before.
Information from the statistics programmes are
updated weekly, usually on Sunday mornings.

Server information
This site is now running on a SUN ULTRA 1 SPARC
computer powered by Apache 1.3.9 (updated from 1.3.1 23rd Dec 1999). The change
over from the TATUNG took place at 6PM 27th August 1998.
In nearly 5 years of
operation, we have had very little downtime due to problems of our equipment in
Chemistry. So if you can't connect, it is most likely that a problem has
occurred either elsewhere on campus or with the overseas connection. If the
local DNS is down and a "machine not found" error occurs, then try using the
current IP for the machine, 196.3.3.123:1104.
Local power cuts
Hopefully this year we will be less affected by power
cuts since new transformers have been installed on campus to cope with the
expansion and heavier power use. Most of the power cuts however are not campus
problems!
The uptime for the
server can be found here.
In the past our biggest problem has been the
bandwidth into the USA. We upgraded to a 256K leased line in December 1997 and
have recently installed VSAT equipment, which was finally switched on the first
week of December 1999. We now have a 768K line available! During the first week
following the changeover our access_log doubled as people found they could get
information more readily.
