    Error When Accessing Remote IIS

     Hi All,

     I have an IIS Server running on a Windows Server 2003 R2 and the server name is infra1.

     
    When i try to remotely acess the log files using logparser i get the following error. The command I use and the error i get is as follows:

     
    C:\Program Files\Log Parser 2.2>logparser -i:IISW3C -o:NAT "SELECT date FROM </i
    nfra1/W3SVC/1>"
    Error: The specified FROM-ENTITY is not a filename, a Metabase path nor a ODBC s
    pecification: Error creating the IMSAdminBase object on machine infra1: The spec
    ified module could not be found.

    C:\Program Files\Log Parser 2.2>

     

    How can i access the remote log file without any error?

    -M-

     It is not a filename

    use the full file path

    eg

    c:\logs\log*.*

     or

    \\myserver\myshare\logs\log*.*

    But, as specified in the Log Parser Book (Page # 6), I am trying to parse remote IIS logs by specifying a full IIS metabase path.

    Dunno I always use full network paths. Do they work?

    Yes, with full network path it works, and if the the logparser and IIS is on the same server, then also it works, but problem when accessed remotely.
