InetServer_Event.log File Not Displayed Properly in Notepad (158649)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Personal Web Server 1.0 for Windows 95
- Microsoft Personal Web Server 1.0a for Windows 95
This article was previously published under Q158649 SYMPTOMS
The InetServer_Event.log file may show pairs of black boxes when viewed
in Notepad, and it may be one long line.
CAUSE
The InetServer_Event.log file is not being written to correctly. The
InetServer_Event.log file contains line feed/carriage return (LF/CR) at the
end of each line, instead of carriage return/line feed (CR/LF). In Notepad,
this is displayed as a pair of black boxes wherever a hard carriage return
should be located in the file.
RESOLUTION
Open a copy of the InetServer_Event.log file in WordPad instead of Notepad.
To start WordPad, click the Start button, point to Programs, point to
Accessories, and then click WordPad.
NOTE: You must copy the InetServer_Event.log file to another location
before opening it. Because this file is accessed by Personal Web Server,
opening the file in WordPad in its original location may generate an error
message.
MORE INFORMATION
When you open the InetServer_Event.log file in WordPad, the text does not
line up exactly because of the extra characters created by the boxes.
However, it will be easier to read in WordPad than it is in Notepad.
