I’m looking for some kind of tool that will let me slice and dice IIS web logs, for troubleshooting purposes…
All tools I’ve found are designed to analyze logs for a “Google Analytics” type of output, but what I want is more like “see all hits made from some IP”, “see all hits to a specific ASHX file”, things like that, to troubleshoot a few obscure bugs we are having with sessions…
Does anyone know of such a tool, or should I just roll my own?
Thanks!
Use logparser. It is a free tool to analyze all kinds of logs including IIS logs.
