newbie alert (been awhile since I said that)...
Is there some way to programmatically know the directory where the log files for a site are located? I am trying to automate the creation of web stats from the log files.
Also, how do you setup/create a web application which all websites on the server can use. For example, navigating to www.domain1.com/sitestats and www.domain2.ca/sitestats will run the same code.
Programmatically... hmm.
Are you using IIS 6? I am taking a stab in the dark at this, but if you could get to the IIS metabase then you could find out where it is.
Yes, II6 on W2K3. IIS only lets one specify the parent folder where log files are stored and insists on having a sub-folder based on the log type and website numeric id. If there was a way to change that I would be a happy camper...
If I could get the numeric id, I could hard-code the rest. Will check out this metabase thingy...
Any thoughts on question 2.
I'll think about your Q1 a bit and come back if I have more to add.
For Q2, you can redirect a subfolder to a website in IIS. Place your web application... wherever.
Under all the other domains, create a folder of whatever name (in your case, sitestats) and right click it, properties, and in the dialog, you'll see "A redirection to a URL." You can specify the URL you want there.
HTH
