Awstats and www

Jim,

For the first time I have "actualcures dotcom/gain.html" in my awstats, even though "/gain.html" has been in awstats counts (and still is) since the beginning. When I hold the cursor over "/gain.html" at the bottom left of the browser it shows "actualcures dotcom" – there’s no www. How can both be in the awststs counts since all my links to my own pages have www in the address? Is there something to correct?

I went to Start, Search, Files and Folders, in the drop down for "Look in:" chose "Browse…", chose the file that contains all my pages, hit ok, under "Containing text" I typed the address of the index page without the www and no files at all came up, with www and all the files of the pages came up- yet the counts in awstats have no www.

Thanks Jim,

Roger

    Perhaps they are people that linked to your site using without the www. When this happens, here is the response your server gives (which is the correct response):
    Server Response: ht tp: //actualcures dotcom/
    HTTP Status Code: HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
    Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2007 16:33:05 GMT
    Server: Apache/1.3.39 (Unix) mod_fastcgi/2.4.2 mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635.SR1.2 mod_ssl/2.8.30 OpenSSL/0.9.7a PHP-CGI/0.1b
    Location: actualcures dotcom/
    Connection: close
    Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
    Redirect Target: actualcures dotcom/

    which then gave a server response of: actualcures dotcom/
    HTTP Status Code: HTTP/1.1 200 OK
    Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2007 16:33:05 GMT
    Server: Apache/1.3.39 (Unix) mod_fastcgi/2.4.2 mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635.SR1.2 mod_ssl/2.8.30 OpenSSL/0.9.7a PHP-CGI/0.1b
    X-Powered-By: PHP/4.4.7
    Connection: close
    Content-Type: text/html

    So, if I link ht tp: //actualcures dotcom/gain.html I’ll be redirected to www… which will show in your awstats log files. I did a test, look for ht tp: //actualcures dotcom/gain.html and see if it shows up. Are they the same as what you noticed in your post above? If so, then there is nothing to worry about.

    Regards,

    Jim.
