[Zope] Is there a Zope logfile analyzer ?

If you are using straight ZServer the Z2.log is a common log format (CFL).
It should have all the information you need.

Yup. They are called "webalizer" and "analog"..(sorry, could not resist). I
am using them both and they both work great. The one thing that does get a
little messy is the "pages" since they are looking for ".html" etc. I
personally like Analog much better as it can be customized to your hearts
content.

> 3.) Can I analyze it with such standard tools ?

Yup and I am sure the rest would work (Summary, Sawmill, Webtrends, MKStats
(if they fix the Y2K bug), Wusage).

> 4.) Are there any parameters I need ?

Nope. Just run them on Z2.log and enjoy.
