Unreadable server logs
#1

[!SOLVED!]

Hello, I'm admin at a little server and need to read some server logs of yesterday. I searched every folder but I couldn't find the right ones. Only one of 5 november but it is unreadable due to weird symbols, there's not even text in it! I really need to read them for some private reason so I won't give any part of the logs. But I can give a part of another log:

Just symbols like this. We are using ServerFFS with an old, edited FRPG script. I really hope somebody can help me. I would be very thankful.

If its not the server_log.txt, then it is a script fault.

The logs are gzipped, you have to unzip them.

I saw they were in a gzip file, but even if I downloaded them, they were unreadable.

Looks like you forgot to extract them. Unless you meant 'download' to be 'extract'.

Lol, why do I forget some text everytime.. Look: First I used display. Weird symbols. Then I thaught that I might dl it and extract it with winrar. Still weird symbols.

When you extracted it, what files were extracted and what files did you try to open with Notepad/Wordpad(assuming your on windows)
