Start the Administrator Interface and connect to the server.
At the bottom of the left pane, click the Server tab.
In the left pane, make sure the server is still selected.

From the Log file format list, choose W3C, or Microsoft IIS or NCSA.
Click Apply.
Changing the log format will disconnect any active users. If you choose to change your log format, try doing so when your users are inactive, or your sites are stopped.
