This has nothing to do with LiveReports or WebReports, but it has to do with reporting and statistical information.
We use IIS and the log format created allows a wealth of information that is difficult, if not impossible, to get out of the CS DB.
Log Parser 2.2 can downloaded from Microsoft free. You employ SQL statements and functions that can pull:
- Stats on who encountered a CGI Timeout or any HTTP Error,
- Counts on the Subtypes being accessed,
- Brava document load counts, printing, publishing to a file, multifile selection and how many were selected, which IDs,
- Time taken for an upload or download and the Byte count,
- User-ID related stats,
- OS(Windows(NT/XP/7/Server/etc), Apple, Linux, etc) of the User's PC,
- Browser being used and version,
- .NET version installed,
- 32-bit or 64-bit,
- Smart Phones being used,
- What internal site is referring to the CS site,
- How many users and who utilize their "Favorites" link,
- In some cases(Brava-related), the true IP Address of the User,
- etc.
All this can be had with no stress on the DB server or network by copying the IIS Logs from the servers to your PC and running the queries there.
It can be used to query the Windows Event logs for specific events, as well.
