Hi Aengus,
I was reading through your help section and have been having  similar  
problems with getting the right logformat for Analog to read the log  
files I get from my ISP.

basically they are also in modified format:

whackmybush.com: [12/Mar/2007:00:00:23 +0000] 71.214.65.149 - - "GET / 
rss.xml HTTP/1.1" 200 2224 "-" "iTunes/7.1 (Macintosh; N; PPC)"
whackmybush.com: [12/Mar/2007:00:00:24 +0000] 71.214.65.149 - - "GET / 
episodes/2007/WMBEP1BIGBRO.mp3 HTTP/1.1" 404 236 "-" "iTunes/7.1  
(Macintosh; N; PPC)"
whackmybush.com: [12/Mar/2007:00:00:28 +0000] 194.109.35.2 - - "GET / 
rss.xml HTTP/1.1" 200 2224 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; Win32;  
WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5)"


I've configured the format for analog.cfg:
(%v: [%d/%M/%y:%h:%n:%j %j] %s - - "%j %r %j" %c %b "%f" "%B")
and it's before the Logfile dir.

However, when I run Analog the error's seem to be - L: too many  
corrupt lines in the file format - Analog does attempt to read the  
logfiles and is very slow as it goes through them line by line.  
Usually it's a C: before each entry and a C:  * on a seperate line too.

ie the output looks like this:

C: whackmybush.com: [03/Oct/2007:16:18:32 +0100] 66.214.232.81 - -  
"GET /rss.xml HTTP/1.1" 200 19245 "-" "iTunes/7.4.2 (Macintosh; N;  
Intel)"
C:                            *
C: whackmybush.com: [03/Oct/2007:16:19:52 +0100] 219.90.182.135 - -

C:                            *

It seems strange the files are corrupt? Any ideas on the problem?  
Would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Rik
