Item11484 changed the statistics script to require POST instead of GET. The
geturl.pl
script, while
deprecated, might be used to run statistics on sites with limited cron access.
- Allow
geturl.pl
to issue POST with form data geturl.pl POST mysite.com/bin/statistics?webs=Sandbox;subwebs=1
- Provide examples of
wget
and curl
in the statistics documentation to further discourage use of geturl.pl
