  • Fixed a bug where profile deletion did not work from the web interface.
  • Fixed a bug in Antispam SMTP Proxy log format, where entries single-digit month days were rejected.
  • Fixed bug where sessions were not logged out by a page value of "(logout)", if that value happened to be the very last unique page encountered in the log data.
  • Fixed a bug which would cause an error when searching the documentation, when Sawmill was running in CGI mode and was configured to use a "temporary directory" to serve static files.
  • Fixed "wildcard" and "regular expression" report filters to be case-insensitive for case-insensitive fields.
  • Fixed a bug which could cause a crash when updating using "skip previously seen files" from a log source containing tens of thousands of files.

  • Fixed a bug which would cause an error when generating the Log Detail report, if it contained more than 61 non-numerical columns, when using a MySQL database.
  • Fixed a bug which could cause a crash while generating reports from a MySQL database, if one or more of the numerical column names conflicted with MySQL keywords.
