You're right, you do need a logfile. But this is not a file you create yourself -- it's created automatically by the web server as it runs. Analog reads this file to find out what the web server's been doing. If your site is hosted by an ISP, you have two options. (1) Ask them to send you the logfile. (2) Ask them to run analog for you on their machine. Different ISPs may be willing to do one or the other, both, or neither.
