merging 2 xml reports into another one

[Joost van Baal]

Hi Roman,

First of all: which Lire version are you using?  Are you using it from a
binary package?  Which package?

You said you've ran

 lr_run  lr_log2report -o xml combined < 27_a >27.xml

and

 lr_run  lr_log2report -o xml combined < 28_a >28.xml

.  That's OK.

Furthermore, you've said in another message you can create HTML reports
fine: you get two 1-day HTML reports.

I've ran lr_xml2ascii on your files.

27.xml contains

  Number of Requests Served by 1d Period

   2002-10-26 ................................................ 0
   2002-10-27 .............................................. 250
   2002-10-27 ................................................ 8

(Hm, this looks pretty bad.)

28.xml contains

  Number of Requests Served by 1d Period

   2002-10-27 ................................................ 0
   2002-10-28 .............................................. 430

total.xml contains

  Number of Requests Served by 1d Period

   2002-10-26 ................................................ 0
   2002-10-27 .............................................. 250
   2002-10-27 .............................................. 438

27.xml has _two_ entries for 2002-10-27.  Furthermore, it says its
reporting on 2002-10-27 00:09:48 CET - 2002-10-27 23:52:16 CET, but
still it has entries on 2002-10-26.

Conclusion: the reports your trying to merge are broken.  Merging broken
reports gives unpredictable results.  Did you get any errormessage when
generating the two XML reports?  If so, which one(s)?

Didn't your HTML report on 27 have multiple 2002-10-27 entries?

(You've sent us a log file in another message, I'll have a look at that
one now.)

Bye,

Joost
