Filter for files in a directory

Avatar
  • updated
I try to create a report on a specific directory and its subdirectories. This is working, but I get many information's after the files e.g. "xxx.pdf;internal&Parameter=1410422130616&ctx=eKS".
This means I see many times the same file with other "Parameter", but I only want to know how many hits we have on this directory, subdirectories and files.
How can I filter it?

Usually requests for files with queries look like http://www.domain.com/files/file.pdf?... - with the query string after the question mark. Do I understand correctly that in your case query and file path are separated with semicolon instead of question mark?

That's correct.
This is a "Hyperwave" logfile from our intranet server.
All the queries looks like: http://servername.domain.local/direct...
There is no question mark!

Unfortunately there is no built-in feature in WebLog Expert to exclude such query from file names, as the program considers them to be parts of file names and not queries (that should begin with the ? character).

However, if you have the Professional or Enterprise edition, it is possible to create a custom table that will list file names modified according to regular expression rules. Such tables are created in Options > Report > Tables. You can find information on creating such tables at http://www.weblogexpert.com/help/wlex... .

Please let me know if you need more information on this feature or help with creating such table.
