How to get log analyzers to download the RAW access logs

[Frib]

I'm checking out the trial version of a weblog analyzer and I can't seem to figure out how to get it to automatically download the access log. This is the second software I have tried, when the first failed I thought it was the software, now I think it's my process.

I've set it to https and I copy the link that is used to manually download the logfile from cpanel

(https://cpanel16.gzo.com:2083/getacc...om_7_2_2005.gz)

and enter the username and password but it just isn't working. The programs keep returning unknown errors, though I can paste the same https path into a browser and download it fine. Is there something I'm missing? Can I get to the file via FTP?

Thanks

This is not a secure way but try using this syntax:

https://username:password@cpanel16.gzo.com:2083/getaccesslog/accesslog_sitename.com_7_2_2005.gz

I have just written it from the top of my mind, so not sure if this will work.

i believe IE removed that ability due to a hijack vulnerability in that syntax, correct me if i am wrong.

Don't use IE then...
