What platform are you on, and what sort of filtering do you want to do?
I use the following batchfile to create XYZ.LOG from my daily IIS logs,
where XYZ is a folder or subweb of the server (in other words, I create
a separate log file containing just the requests for pages in
http://server/XYZ/ )
@echo off
echo #Date: > headers.txt
echo #Fields: >> headers.txt
echo #Software: Microsoft Internet Information Server 4.0 > %1_APR.log
for /l %%f in (401,1,430) do
findstr /i /c:" /%1/" /g:headers.txt ex000%%f.log >> %1_Apr.log
del headers.txt
Note that the FOR ... FINDSTR command should be all on one line - I
broke it after the DO to aid readability
The FOR and FINDSTR commands may need some explanation:
FOR /L will loop through the numbers indicated -
FOR /L %f in (start, step, end) do ...
so "for /l %%f in (401,1,430) do " will give %f the value 401, 402,
403, 404, etc, repeating the command in the DO clause until the loop
exits at 430. (Note that the use of % signs within batch files can be
confusing).
FINDSTR /i /c:" /XYZ/" g:headers.txt ex000401.log will search
ex000401.log for all lines that have either " /XYZ/" or "#Date" or
"#Fields" (these entries are stored in headers.txt)
This batchfile will go through my daily logs (for April, in this case)
and create a single logfile containing only requests for a particular
folder, and any Extended header log files that are generated during the
month (in case of a change of log format). The "#Software:" header is
added automatically at the start of the new log file.
