Hello:
I've been examining IIS logs downloaded from my web host's server, and
I noticed that entried that they should have been created by me going
to my own site minutes before are not there. In fact, it seems the
logs were way off timewise. How does IIS write to logs? Does it keep a
cache and then dumps it once in a while to the logs, or writes right
away (the latter doesn't seem the case). I am concerned by this an
other anomalies in which my hosting service seems involved. 4 1854
Are you sure it's not just that the server's time setting is in a different
time zone? Are you looking at the GMT time?

Thanks for the replies. I knew that the web server in question writes
GMT logs, but still, the logs are off, and the very last visits aren't
written down immediately. All I have to do is go to my website, click
a few links, then download the current log. The log will be behind at
least 15 minutes, probably much more. Therefore my initial question
below : logs were way off timewise. How does IIS write to logs? Does it
keep a cache and then dumps it once in a while to the logs, or writes
right away (the latter doesn't seem the case).

Depends on version of IIS. IIS does cache changes to the log file and
write them later, and IIS6 has changed some of this as well. Though
the times should be accurate, the events may not be written for some
time after they happen.
Try the IIS group for details on your specific version.

I'm trying to write a script to weekly remove MySQL logs, the general,
error and binary log files.
Following the MySQL documentation, I've written a script that moves all
current log files, then executes mysqladmin flush-logs.
My question is this on the binary logs (bin.001, bin.002, etc.): once these
are removed and flush logs is executed, the binary log files start over
with bin.001.

Hi,
I am right in assuming to recover a database where logretain is on.
That I only need the logs that are reported in the list history.. for

Here is the situation....
We have Primary Server A linked to Standby Server B via HADR.
Primary Server A has recently installed LOGARCHMETH1 to archive logs
and a 2nd homegrown script that compresses the archived logs once in
the archive log directory.
Standby Server B has our old script that moves logs from active to
archive directories and then compresses them every 30 minutes.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
