varnishlog not behaving as expected (by me)

[Alex Hooper]

Hi,

I'm having a bit of trouble using varnishlog. I am using:

  /usr/local/bin/varnishlog -o RxURL "^wp-admin$"

Expecting to see grouped log lines for requests where the RxURL matches
/^wp-admin$. But the (copious) output I see is like:

    0 StatAddr     - 59.181.130.123 0 6 1 3 0 0 0 1003 8711
    0 StatAddr     - 120.28.216.236 0 1 6 11 0 0 0 3864 92763

    0 StatAddr     - 80.13.50.156 0 754 23 42 0 0 0 7434 0


'/usr/local/bin/varnishlog' -i RxURL  shows me the requests coming in.
'/usr/local/bin/varnishlog -i RxURL|grep wp-admin' shows that there are
generally no requests for wp-admin.

Am I missing something obvious?

(varnish-2.0.4 on RHEL 5.4)

Cheers,

Alex.
