Re: [Summary-Talk] no Summary URL provided

[Jason Linhart <jason@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It is difficult to say exactly what is going on. A good general purpose 
thing to try first is to:

1) Quit Summary, "./summary -quit" on Linux
2) Delete the "report.dat" and "curvisits.gz" files from Summary's data 
folder.
3) Launch Summary again.
4) If you have been using incremental mode you should go to the Tools 
page, there is a link on the main configuration page, and restore a 
recent backup.
5) Process logs manually once.

That should get things going again. If that doesn't work please tell us 
how far you got on that list and exactly what went wrong.

Good Luck
Jason

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
