NCSA Input Format
The NCSA input format parses log files in the NCSA Common, Combined, and Extended Log File Formats.
The NCSA Log File Format is a text-based, fixed-field format.
Log entries are logged on a single line, consisting of a space-separated list of
field values.
There are three versions of the NCSA Log File Format: "Common", "Combined",
and "Extended". The three versions differ by the number of fields that are
logged for each request.
IIS can log NCSA Common Log File Format log files, while other web servers can be
configured to log with the Combined and Extended formats.
The following example shows a portion of an NCSA Common Log File Format log file:
172.21.13.45 - Microsoft\User [08/Apr/2001:17:39:04 -0800] "GET /scripts/iisadmin/ism.dll?http/serv HTTP/1.0" 200 3401 172.21.201.112 - - [08/Apr/2001:21:01:19 -0800] "GET /style.css HTTP/1.0" 200 3401
The following example shows a portion of an NCSA Combined Log File Format log file:
172.21.13.45 - Microsoft\User [08/Apr/2001:17:39:04 -0800] "GET /scripts/iisadmin/ism.dll?http/serv HTTP/1.0" 200 3401 "http://www.microsoft.com/" "Mozilla/4.05 [en] (WinNT; I)" "USERID=CustomerA" 172.21.201.112 - - [08/Apr/2001:21:01:19 -0800] "GET /style.css HTTP/1.0" 200 1937 "http://www.microsoft.com/" "Mozilla/4.05 [en] (WinNT; I)" "USERID=CustomerA"
