"parse error" when log format is NCSA extended/combined

[weppos]

Posted on behalf of toro.

when log format is NCSA extended/combined, %u ( the userid of the person requesting the document) always causes the parse error.

I think that the cause of the problem is here.

Not

when element == ‘%U’

but

when element == ‘%u’

I might be wrong… but after I change it , no error .
thanks.
