Return Codes Help from log file

Here is a line form a google vist yesterday

2003-07-08 13:42:10 - - 00.00.00.000 80 GET /default.asp - 200 0 231 Googlebot/2.1+(+http://www.googlebot.com/bot.html) - -

I know that the 200 line after default.asp is HTTP_OK.

What is the zero and subsequent 231 represent?

Updevision,

Your server log is not in common log format or in NCSA extended/combined log format, so this is just a guess:
I'd say 231 is the total bytes sent, including the HTTP response header, and 0 is the total bytes sent excluding the header. So, nothing but the response header was returned.

The zero could also be the time in seconds required to send the response. I don't see any other common numerical entries that would make sense, but again these are just guesses. For a question like this, you should ask your host or server admin.

Thank you Jim,

I have our server admin looking at this thread and then after I get a response I'll reply with it here.

Our server is Microsoft 2000 OS with and using IIS 5.

Can I convert the logs to the common version?

Yes,you can change the log output format in IIS 5.
