Hello everyone!

I've been messing around with LOGFORMAT, trying to get it working
with our non-standard log setup.

Unfortunately, there seem to be some rather weird errors going on.

LOGFORMAT (%v\t%j\t%t\t%s\t%u\t[%d/%M/%Y:%h:%n:%j
%j]\t"%r"\t%c\t%b\t"%f"\t"%B") matches our real setup. All fields
are tab delimited, except for the date which is ISO compliant.

servername, gzip Ratio, processing time, client IP, username,
[DD/MMM/YYYY:HH:NN:SS -TZTZ], "Request", status code, size,
"Referrer", "Useragent"

However, analog thinks that all lines are corrupt, and the error
seems to point towards a different place in lines.

A sample (sanitized for our users protection):
C: server      -       -       1.2.3.4    -
[27/Feb/2008:18:54:24 -0500]    "GET /images/image.png HTTP/1.1"
200     4373    " www.somesite.com"    "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U;
Windows NT 6.0; en-US;) Gecko/0000 Firefox/0000"
C:                           *

If we put a space where the first tab is (some of the tabs appear a
space long, but cat -e confirms they are actually tabs), it changes
to this:
C: server      -       -       1.2.3.4    -
[27/Feb/2008:18:54:24 -0500]    "GET /images/image.png HTTP/1.1"
200     4373    " www.somesite.com"    "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U;
Windows NT 6.0; en-US;) Gecko/0000 Firefox/0000"
C:
*

I'm not sure what to do next, so I turn to you.

If I change your %t to %j, Analog parses the line - it appears that "-" isn't a valid %t.

(Tab delimited log files are almost impossible to debug - you have to change the tabs to spaces in a sample line, and the \t to %w in the LOGFORMAT to have any chance of figuring out what Analog doesn't like).
