Analog will recognize ASP pages, I use the following in my analog config file. As for
the GET .vs. POST, Stephen may need to explain that as to how Analog actually parses
those.
---
LOGFORMAT MS-EXTENDED
PAGEINCLUDE *.html,*.htm,*.shtml,*.asp,*.sql,*.php3,*/,*.cgi
TYPEOUTPUTALIAS .asp ".asp [Active Server Pages]
---
Also remember that NT IIS4 will invariably add extra status lines into your log files.
These are called the MS-EXTENDED headers. They identify when a logging pattern has
changed. I found out that Analog barfs when these headers get placed anywhere else
inside the logfile other than the first few lines of the logfile.
QUESTION FOR Stephen: 1. Can .asp be added to the default TYPEOUTPUTALIAS for the next
revision of Analog? 2. Can Analog be trained to handle mid-logfile header changes
using the MS-EXTENDED logformat?
