?? You have a logfile with 1 line in it and Analog is reporting that it contains 5500 lines without a status code? > Everything else for the month looks normal, so I am guessing it's not > impacting my numbers, but it seems odd and I wondered if anyone had a > suggestion for diagnosing the issue.

If you're not specifying a LOGFORMAT, and Analog is autodetecting your logfile, there may be something that is causing it to misinterpret some lines as being a different format, and it's not seeing the status code in that case. Comment lines (such as the #Fields lines that are used to specify a format) are recognized as valid lines, but they don't have a status code, so if your web server was restarted a couple of hundred times that day, you could end up with a bunch of lines without status code (though you'd probably have noticed that your server was restarted! Try specifying the particular LOGFORMAT that you think Analog should be using, and see if the "Lines without Status code" change to "Corrupt lines". That would indicate that something is injecting non-standard log entries into your logfile that are close enough to a valid format that they are being recognized as valid, but without a status code.
