I run wwwstat against apache logs. Lately on a main large install (the logs being close to or ovre 400MB) the perl script will run, print out 8192 bytes exactly of report output, then abort with a floating point exception error message. I thought it might be some kind of divide error and wasted weeks putting in checks before any math operations. Then finally I put in an echo check - just a line to spew out some iteration information, and the point the program stopped at changed, I mean what secton of the report it was on when it aborted - but again, the report itself was exactly 8192 bytes in size. The report goes to stdout which I use >filename to trap in a file. Any ideas? Im going crasy!
