Comment 1 for bug 1066834

This bug is beyond annoying as I documented at https://sourceforge.net/p/awstats/discussion/43430/thread/d2d5b969/

Here is the text from the posts that I did there:

After I upgraded from 6.95 to 7.0, the top ten pages started listing .png files, etc. I tried downgrading and the problem didn't go away. I put debug statements in awstats.pl and $NotPageList{png} has the correct value. Any hints of what type of debug statements I should add to figure out this problem?

It seems that setting LevelForFileTypesDetection to 2 (from 0) stops the statistics from adding more .png hits to the top 10 page list although the old .png hits are still listed. (The apache log files are purged by awstats after processing them since my logs get pretty big.) This seems to be related to the bug documented at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/awstats/+bug/1066834

I cleaned up the stuff between BEGIN_SIDER and END_SIDER in the relevant .txt file and the problem seems to be solved. The fact that downgrading didn't clean up the mistake in the .txt file threw me off for a while when I tried to diagnose the problem.
