The warning message you are getting means that Analog didn't even parse
your LOGFILE line(s), so you should look for other error messages, check
to make sure the lines don't have '#' at the start, and possible run
analog with "SETTINGS ON" to see how it's reading those lines.

Paths in Unix are very similar to Windows except the direction of the
slash. Most likely, however, you are running Analog from a working
directory that is not where it is installed. Log file names without a
leading slash are relative to the working path, not the location of
Analog or the config file. Your best bet is to use fully qualified path
names, especially if you are planning to schedule this process.

Subject: [analog-help] logfile path in Linux vs Windows

Hi. I've been using Analog on my Windows machine for a couple of years 
but am now switching over to Linux, at which I am currently a complete 
dunce. I've downloaded the 6.0 source package and compiled it without 
editing the anlghead file. I copied my existing config file over and 
made some slight adjustments due to a new file structure, but can't get 
the program to run successfully.

I get the error 'Warning D: LOGFORMAT in configuration file analog.cfg 
with no subsequent LOGFILE.'
I do have customised logformat lines but they are before the logfile 
lines, and have never been a problem before. The only thing I've tried 
to adjust is the paths, but being new to Linux I don't quite understand 
how to specify these. The logs (named 'www.example.com.0.gz' thru 
'~6.gz') are stored in a subfolder /R4files off of the main Analog 
folder, and I generate a report from 7 days' worth at a time. So my 
logfile line I thought should be:
LOGFILE R4files/www.example.com.0.gz,R4files/www.example.com.1.gz,
etc. through to the seventh one. I also tried with an initial slash, and

with a ./ but no joy. Of course in Windows I just started with 
R4files\www and used backslashes throughout but I presume that's not the

case in Linux. Should I be specifying complete paths, i.e. 
/home/user/Analog/R4files/www. etc.?

The only other remark in the error file is that it always fails to open 
the output file too, so I presume this is a paths-related issue, or 
permissions or something?

Cheers,
gumb.
