Frank,

To change the loggin location Right click on the website > Properties > Enable Loggin > Properties > change the location at the bottom.

Assuming you using IIS5+ Can't remember anything about the earlier versions of IIS

I like that script on how to import them. Simple but you could create some nice reports.

What are you doing this for? Are you the evil person who stands with a whip and is gonna lash people when you see they have not spent time on the intranet working?

Cheers,

Crispin

Something as incredibly simple as

binary still gives you too many options

Cheers,CrispinI can't die, there are too many people who still have to meet me!It's not a bug, SQL just misunderstood me!

IIS ???

I'm only allowed to use the service. Well, that's what the admin told me. This is just for a small homepage of the asset management department (eg. me and my colleague) to publish report to a central place where senior management can read these reports or not. Hm, at least in theory, in most cases they want us to print reports out and personally explain to them.

call it programming training! I think it would be a nice feature for me to add. Nobody but me will use this. In fact, nobody will even now that it is there!

I spent 4 years in asset management and am now seriously considering going back where I came from. Maybe applying for a DBA job in my company.

I'm not going to lash anyone, for the only readers if at all come from top management. I don't want to kill myself

Cheers,

Frank

Ask this admin if you can get copies of the log files for the intranet webserver. These are normally just text files containing details of every transaction against the webserver (typically HTTP GET resource, with a status code (200 OK/Not found 404 etc.), the IP of the client and the time.

If it's just programming training you want then maybe just revert to the original approach and stick some code in each asp page, you'll probably cover some useful ASP material getting it all done.

However, I'm not sure how useful the results will be. If I open a webpage, go to lunch and browse to another page, it may appear that I have a deep interest in that page 🙂

Frank,

Perhaps your IIS Admin will give you a virtual directory within a new site to access your logfiles directly. I have done this in the past with good results.

This gives you the same http access that Crispin mentioned earlier, without changing the logfile directories...

actually I haven't done anything in this direction, because I'm bombed with stupid number crunching for some budgeting, 5-year forecasting...

Although it was meant as some kind of programming exercise for me, your suggestion is really worth considering

Cheers,

Frank
