Question here for you that use Urchin to process IIS logs.

When URL's are logged by IIS spaces are replaced by plus + signs.

For example : 'my web page.html' gets logged at 'my+web+page.html'

Urchin then processes the logs and treats that as the file name so when you go into the statistics and try and click the link it sends you to my+web+page.html which doesnt work because spaces in links should be formatted as %20 eg my%20web%20page.html.

Is there anyway to fix this? I've had a look at filters and so forth but It would require a complex regex i believe which i'm not too clever on (eg you cant just replace EVERY + with a %20, you need to be more specific as not to break other things)

Assuming that Urchin processes the logfiles daily, eg does Wednesday's logfile on Thursday, you could parse, amend and rewrite the logfile before Urchin got to it.

You might find it easier to use another stats program: we've had lots of success with AWStats on IIS files.

If you want to follow up the parse and rewrite idea and need help let me know,we may be able to help (we have an IIS FTP log parsing app which could be tweaked; not a 5 mins job tho).
