I've never had the problem being discussed and until the latest version (5.9) never even told it to explicitly keep a history.I don't know why or since when, but I had it happening to me too. So, then I started using -dir and/or -date and everything was fine again. This is with a pure awstats install from Sarge. Grx HdV
Thanks for all the replies, guys :)After reading this thread and re-visit the awstats.sourceforge.net, there are someways to solve this problem.
I am using "awstats_buildstaticpages.pl" instead of "awstats.pl" now.1) with "-dir" / "-date", can put monthly report to different dir with different names. this prevents any overwriting. 2) with "-month=all -year=YYYY", can generate an annual report. I think do some manual backup each year is not a big deal. This is what I am doing now :)
