|Using Apache 2.x.xx, I added a line to the config file (/usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf is default location).
The line needs to appear below the DocumentRoot directive
and within the <Directory> directive which relates to the
DocumentRoot (||/usr/local/apache2/htdocs is default location).|

In your case, the line might look like this (all on one line)
RedirectMatch 301 ^/pubs/<b>food</b>s(.*) http://host.domain.tld/pubs/foods$1
In the case of Apache, the ||RedirectMatch 301 accomplishes two tasks: (1) it brings the end user to the desired page and (2) it indicates to search engines that index/reindex the page that it is permanently moved (helps search engines correct their hyperlinks). || If you're using another server, check its documentation to see if it supports server redirection (many servers do). Of course, the syntax may change and file names/locations are likely to be different.

What kind of redirect did you use to do that? Did you have a regular expression to look for and remove pairs of tags from the requested URL? What does it look like?

I previously encountered a similar situation. My solution was to include a server redirect in my server's config file. The redirect brought visitors to the correct page and the resulting log entries were parsed by Analog in a manner that satisfied me.

Is there a way to restrict what gets included in the Directory Report, by HTTP status code? That is, requests that result in a "206 Partial Content" get included, but I want to exclude them.
Rationale:
I'm regularly seeing requests for URLs that look like this:
/pubs/<b>food</b>s/348-907/348-907.html
I don't know why, but some engine or other is putting <b></b> tags around portions of an otherwise valid URL. And my server often responds with a 206. These end up appearing in my Directory Report, and I'd rather they not.
Thanks!
