IIS Log file locations (Windows 2003 and 2008)


For quick reference, I'm posting the Default IIS log file locations for Windows Server 2003 and 2008.

Windows 2003:

  • HTTP Log file location: C:\WINDOWS\system32\LogFiles\W3SVC1
  • HTTP ERR (ERROR) log file location: c:\Windows\System32\LogFiles\HTTPERR

Windows 2008:

  • HTTP Log file location: c:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC1
  • HTTP ERR location: c:\Windows\System32\LogFiles\HTTPERR
