The log file is a plain text file with a .log extension, but that's not what "logfile format" means, as you appear to know, but your service provider doesn't :-(. The problem is that you have a "standard" logformat with an additional field at the start - the "stpeterskinver.org: " that your ISP is using to separate your logentries from everyone elses, but in a location that can't be recognized automatically. This LOGFORMAT matches the line you provided: LOGFORMAT (%v: [%d/%M/%Y:%h:%n:%j] %S %j %j "%j %r %j" %c %b "%f" "%B") > I am copying the log files from the ftp server and then using the > LOGFILE to point to a folder in my home directory.

But if you put it in a different location, you may need to set the IMAGEDIR and CHARTDIR and LOCALCHARTDIR settings too.
