An access log features a record of all files that have been requested by the visitors while exploring your website. The list is thorough, so when you have a web page with two embedded images, for instance, all of the three files shall be in the log, not just the page. An access log normally contains the date, the OS, the browser and the IP address for each and every file in human-readable form, so you can get a more complete picture about the hottest files on your Internet site. The log, which is also frequently called "raw data", is an addition to the web data which you usually get with a hosting account, not a replacement. One example why you may require this type of a log is if you would like to use some software on your PC to prepare a report about the website’s performance, but you don't want to use the regular graphs and tables that come with the server-generated site statistics.
Access Log Manager in Shared Hosting
When you purchase a shared hosting from us, you'll be able to determine if access logs have to be created and for which domains or subdomains in your account this must be done. You'll be able to enable this function from the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia Control Panel, integrated with all shared accounts. Every domain you host or subdomain you create will be listed there and you'll see an On/Off option next to every one of them, so you can conveniently activate or disable the generation of access logs individually for each site that you have. You may save a log to your PC by clicking on the Download link you'll see inside the exact same section of the Control Panel. The link is available even if you stop the log generation, so you will still have access to the data collected by our system.
Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our sophisticated website hosting platform will generate access logs for each and every Internet site hosted in a semi-dedicated server account, assuming that this feature is enabled. All domains and subdomains that you have will be listed inside the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia CP, which we provide with all of the accounts, so if you would like our system to start generating logs for any of them, you should simply click on the small button on the right side of the respective domain/subdomain and change the default Off option to On. You'll be able to stop this function at any time by following the exact same steps. You'll find a Download link for each and every log inside the exact same section of the CP, so you can save the content generated by our system in .txt format with just a mouse click. An existing log file may be downloaded even after the option has been disabled, so you'll still be able to check out the data that's already been generated.
