I've read that Analog can process large files like no other program. Will my 4GB per day log files be an issue?? ----- Original Message ---- From: Aengus <[email protected]> To: Support for analog web log analyzer <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, July 16, 2008 6:54:52 PM Subject: Re: [analog-help] Large Log FIles Kush <[email protected]> wrote: > Yes, that is the type of log file its is.

And Analog is designed to work with web server log files where every single line represents a complete transaction, and consists of a a date, time, IP address, request, status code and some other optional fields such as the bytes transferred, user name, referrer and Browser Agent string. If your logfiles look like that, then Analog will work very well with those logs. I have no idea what exactly you mean by a "transfer.log". But most FTP server logs tend not to have all the information that Analog expects, or else have multiple log entries for a single "transaction" (for example an entry when a file transfer starts, and another one when it finishes). Analog isn't designed to parse that type of information, though if you know what you're doing, you can use Analog to extract some information from that type of log. > Can they be > converted? Beats me, as you haven't told us what you mean by "transfer.log". Analog is designed to analyse and report on Web server access logs. If you're not dealing with standard web server log files, and don't have time to read the documentation, then Analog isn't for you.
