I set on of my sites on IIS 5 on w2k server sp4 to log monthly.

When I try to open log and go to eof (end of file) I see logged only access
of about 2 hours ago...Sad

Ex: I analyze txt log file of site A on 11:40 AM.

The last line I can see on that file has 09:40 as time information....

What is happening ?

Any help or suggestions much appreciated.

Best Regards.

Hey Fabrizio,

You're in Italy, right ? Well that means you are two hours AHEAD of
GMT at the moment. By default IIS logging uses GMT as its timestamp so
your logs will always be two hours out unless you change your log
files to the native Microsoft IIS Log File Format.

Refer to this KB article for more information :

IIS Log File Entries Have the Incorrect Date and Time Stamp

The logs don't write in real time. You will most likely find a M$ KB article=
on this. Could be that the last time your site was accessed was 9:40
